Quoted from DakotaMike:

Opto 1 will phantom trigger when the right flipper button is pressed

Replace the diodes on the flipper coil first. Retest. Still bad, check the 12 volt power going the the opto board while flipping. What do you get for a reading?

A lot of people add toys and crap to the games. Most of the time they will connect them to J-116, J-117 and J-118 on the PDB. The game uses these connectors for the optos. When they run out of space for their crap they add in y connectors or splitters. From to much draw I have seen the pins become burnt and need replacement along with the connectors. Start here at the PDB connector and see what you get for voltage, should get 5 and @ 14.2 volts. If that's good then find the opto board under the playfield for the bookcase, check the grey/yellow wire to the ground braid, should be @ 14 volts. If good then check the same grey wire to the black wire on the opto board connector, should still get @ 14 volts. This will tell you if the ground wire is good too.

This is really good info. Thanks very much for taking the time to post. We are getting activation of the phantom flip opto when the left flipper is activated. You have given me a great place to start looking. We have no mods.

Also look at the flipper diodes too.
