Twice today in two consecutive games I was playing, the flippers would just go dead with balls in the play field, not sure about the first time, but the second time I was definitely in multi ball.

Odd thing is that the inlane/outlane inserts would continue to move, before the balls would drain by pressing the buttons, but the flippers would not activate.

After the ball/balls would drain, everything would go back to normal.

I am thinking a trough opto may have issues, but I have not ran through a switch test yet,

Any thoughts?

Reseat the ball trough opto board connectors and see if it improves.

Run a zip tie around it while your at it.

Also make sure a Led bulb hasnt fallen into the ball trough
