Om Medusa, the Shield Post (“Shield of the Gods”) is controlled by the extra button next to the right flipper button.
When I press this button, the shield display counts down as it should (from five to zero for every button push). However, the shield post doesn’t move, because the coil doesn’t show any signs of activity.
I have measured the resistance of the coil (AN-26-1200) and it is 11.0 ohms (it should be 12.5 ohms according to a table I found). I have also cleaned the contact points of the blade switches.
The switch looks a bit weird. Is there a blade missing at “A”? See images below.
Any suggestions what to do?
