Quoted from Indypin:

That's interesting because I just purchased a RS. I put in a color dmd as well upon receiving the pin and now I have a weak left lower flipper.

Seems like a coincidence to me. Transmitter optos are on all the time and will burn out over time. Game is 25+ years old after all. Time for the transmitter optos to start going out.

Start with swapping the flipper opto boards between left and right side to see if the problem follows. I expect it will. I shaped optos are available as well as the whole board.

Quoted from LTG:

Unplug power to the color dmd. Play a game blind. If it works, get a separate power supply for the DMD.
LTG : )

Never had to get a separate power supply for any of my 13 ColorDMD games, not even for reset issues. Nor for any games I install for others as well. I installed over 50 over the last few years at the Houston Arcade Expo.
