I’m having trouble with my Star Wars episode 1 left flipper. I’ve replaced the coil and switch circuit board and it still not working properly. It will engage but not release. If I hit the flipper button or the switch circuit board button repeatedly it will disengage. What am I missing?? Everything on the flipper seems to be in good working condition.

Next time it is stuck up, turn the game off. Then you'd at least know mechanical issue or electrical issue.

Problem was still there with power off. Left flipper stayed up when powered off. Everything in the flipper assembly looks ok, but I am buying a rebuild kit to replace the components. Hopefully that will fix this issue.
