I replaced my series wound flipper coils on both Pinbot and Highspeed with parallel wound coils, I followed the instructions from posts 88 and 89 and the flippers worked well until the games were used in a competition, after a couple of hours of play the flipper fuse on both Pinbot and Highspeed blew.
The Flipper coils were super hot and had expanded so the coil sleeves are now stuck.
The EOS switches are gapped properly and do definitely open at the end of the flipper travel.
So I have some questions just to be sure I have done things correctly.
1. Is this mod changing series coils to parallel coils OK for Pinbot and Highspeed?
2. Pinbot did not have a capacitor across the EOS on either side. In the Pinbot manual there is no capacitor shown across the EOS, the capacitor is shown across the flipper switch. I placed a capacitor across the EOS switch. Could this be a problem?
Any other ideas of where I have gone wrong with this flipper upgrade?
