Hey pinside. I'm really bummed out right now because I'm having a pinball party tomorrow and my Road Show has been rebooting when I play it about 30-60 seconds into game play. It doesn't do this in attract mode. I just got through installing 2 pinball life spotlights that I soldered to the slingshot GI bulbs and a 44 color changer underneath the blast hole. Am I drawing too much current and causing the game to reset itself by adding these bulbs? the spotlights have ultra bright CT warm white in them btw. Please help me I need to get this fixed by tomorrow.

The connections on the flipper coils seemed to be burned up and charred especially on the right flipper which has an issue with staying up after the button was released for a second. Can i clean that up and resolder the connection?

Looking at the flipper coils further I realized that this particular machine has a hack job of flipper connections. I compared my T2 to this and the connections are nice and clean and not burned up. I guess I need to replace the plastic part that holds these and redo all of these connections properly. This seems to be the obvious issue. Also one of the diodes on the right flipper is blackened so it might be dead. Is there a way to purchase these parts without having to order them and get this done by tomorrow night?
