Quoted from DustyFSH:

Hey everyone,
I have a random question that I hope that someone can help me out with, it isn't something that I have experienced before and I couldn't find anything in the forums. I have a T2 that has been working great after a full shop out. Just last night, I observed that the right flipper will flip at a all times, whether in a game or not. Literally as soon as you power on the game and have not started a game, you can flip the right flipper, but not the left. The flipper works fine during the game and video mode and everything works perfect.
It is just strange that the right flipper will flip at all times, even outside of an active game.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

When you shopped out the game, did replace the leaf switches? Maybe the right leaf switch is hitting the metal apron and grounding, causing you to be able to activate the flipper. Sometimes the stack is too long and overlooked in a shop job.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions and input. It was indeed the flipper leaf just barely making contact with the shooter bracket. I was able to mount it a touch lower like Ken mentioned, and that fixed it right away! Thanks guys!

Woohoo, glad you fixed it. Now play that T2 and own that Terminator.
