OP
Quoted from DoctorMack:
I'm guessing I blew a fuse, and I don't have a multi meter(will get one shipped shortly), does anyone know off hand which fuse on the flipper board it would be(or multiple fuses) from memory? The flippers work when i do the coil test, so it has to be a blown fuse for all 3 of them to not work suddenly? Thanks for the help!

OK, what are saying here?

Do the flippers work in gameplay?

Do the flippers work in Test - Solenoids - flipper solenoids?

Do the flipper buttons work in Test - Switch Edge test?

Quoted from pinmike:
Where you playing the game when this happened?If my mind serves me correctly a blown flipper fuse will not fire either way

OK, so if the 3 flippers do not work during a game but all 3 do fire using Test, it cannot be blown fuses otherwise they would never fire at all.

If the flipper buttons all show up in Switch Test, then it's not bad flipper switches.

Do all the other coils in the game work both during a game and in solenoid test? Pops, slings, etc?

So you can start a new game successfully ,and everything works EXCEPT the flippers during game play?

If a connector or ribbon cable was bad or off, the flipper coils would not fire in test either.

It's weird, I'm not sure what is going on.

If flippers fire in test but not in game play I immediately suspect the flipper button switches but he says they test OK.
