F116 is a weird one to be blowing, because that's your 12 v unregulated. Not exactly related to flippers, normally. I'd unplug flipper power (the big connector at the top of the fliptronic board), hit the buttons, and see what happens.

Edit: I couldn't tell if you'd done this or not by your posts. If you've determined it is the buttons themselves, try one at a time.

Actually, did someone do funky wiring on your machine? Unplugging J 118 should do diddly squat to your flippers. It should go to your display board, and playfield motors, and coin door. Totally different 12v, 12v digital, goes to the flipper board.

My guess: Someone confused the digital 12 and the unregulated 12. Given that unregulated is usually about 14v, it will still run the board, just at a higher voltage than intended. Trace both the wires, and see what's up. Don't get confused if they're the same color wire - they still are different voltages. Remember the one from the left side of the power board should be going to the flipper board, not the one from j118

Wait. What happens if you take the plug from 117, remove it, and then plug the plug from 118 into it?
