I just got my newest Pin home last night. 500+miles round trip. Everything worked when I played it before transport, but now the upper RIGHT playfield flipper engages and stays on. I pulled the glass and felt the flipper and it feels like its constantly drawing power.

I flipper up the playfield and looked at the 2 lower flippers and noticed that there is an EOS switch on the left side, but on the right side it looks like its missing.

Do you believe this is whats wrong or could it be something else?

Anyone out there have a working Stern 2000s pin, preferably a RCT, that you can take a close up shot of the lower flipper assemblies?

I see the manual is avail on CD only part # 970-2002-00, marco carries it but its OOS. Anyone out there have the 2002 Archive manual CD for STERN?

Thanks!

Thank you very much. (My troll is purple, btw).. I feel very sheepinsh..

Today at work, after I posted this. A VERY wise friend of mine who owns a Funhouse suggested that I inspect the flipper button itself. He said that Funhouse had a double trigger or sorts, so if you pressed the right flipper button you can trigger the lower flipper and then by pressing harder you will engage the upper button... ANYWAYS.. He was 100% correct, the flipper button was the culprit. It was bent slightly, essentially continually "pressing" the upper flipper. Adjusting the angle of this, fixed the issue. If you look at your right flipper inside the cabinet you will see what I mean.

I guess Lawlor designed the RCT and Funhouse flippers somewhat the same!

I took pics of the place in question, I'll upload them in a bit.

If you happen to know where I can get a manual ,that info would be great. Marco is out of stock on the digital format, and Stern's website essentially points me to Marco..

Here is a photo of the contact points Im talking about. The flipper button comes into the cabinet where it's indicated "flipper button".
