    WPC fliptronics 2 (Black Rose)

    In switch edge test I'm getting a strange issue between columns 5 and 2.

    If I hit ANY switch in column 5, it not only registers there, but also the corresponding switch in column 2. For example, if I hit the switch at col5 row1, it will register as a contact with BOTH col5 row1 AND col2 row1.

    It doesn't happen in reverse (activating a switch in column 2 just registers as expected).

    Any ideas?

    Probably not related: also happening at this time the cannon immediately fires when a ball is loaded. The switch for the fire button is in column 3, so I'm not sure what's going on here.... but both issues started at the same time. Odd

    Perhaps a short downstream of a diode on column 5 that connects it to column 6?

    Remove J205 from the MPU board and test again. Just a hunch.
