So I rebuilt all the flippers on my Pharaoh pinball machine. Now the upper flippers machine gun and act as if they are to weak to hold open the eos switch. So I have 36 vdc on all 3 lugs of all 4 coils. When I push the flipper button and hold it the volts go down to about 22+ to 23 vdc on 2 lugs of each coil. I have also installed new flipper cabinet switches, as I was thinking that may be the issue. If I bend the oes switch to wear it does not open the upper flippers have full power and no issues. When I put the eos switch back and set it at about 1/8 when it opens it acts as if the coil is to weak to hold open the leaf switch and it will start making contact the the other side of leaf switch and then start to machine gun. I tried moving coils and that did nothing. I did not have this problem before the rebuild. I installed everything that comes with flipper rebuild kits. Anyone have any thoughts?

It's possible you have a broken wire on the hold winding of flipper coil

I flipped coils around also from the lower to upper and still had the issues. I am wondering if it has to do with power supply?

Post a few pics of the flipper(s) in question. Maybe something was assembled improperly or possibly mis-wired?
