Put a meter on the wires to figure out what is what if not in the manual.
Only thing that optos might make hot is if they are dirty and slightly closed. Since you don't have optos in there now, I'd check for worn parts, binding parts, a tiny bit of up and down play on the flipper shaft.

Quoted from MeEtc:For anyone who finds this topic in the future, I found the solution to the overheating coils. The end of stroke switches are supposed to be normally closed, the ones on my game were set to normally open. I noticed that when forcing the flippers back down while activated, the high power turned OFF, rather than turning on. Reversed the switches, and they're working correctly.
You have other issues going on there. Wrong coils ? Wired wrong ? somebody converted to pre fliptronic flippers ?
Your game is fliptronics - EOS switches are open when the flipper is at rest.
