correction to original post. it's the Left Flipper...and thanks, guys. anything helps...lol.
It looks to me as if the EOS is open and it needs to be moved more to the left so when the flipper flips it opens the EOS. When he flips the flipper you don’t even see it move. As slow as it’s moving it tells me that the switch is open and it’s trying to open an open switch. Have him move the contact blade to the left where you can visibly see that opening the switch more and it will charge the capacitor and it will pop the coil like it’s supposed to. I hope you understand what I’m trying to tell you…
it's 100% closed. i have a few pics verifying that.
so, it's been the same issue since he received it. he sent me videos and pictures, although they suck...i think it's compression via text
from whatever he uses to my iPhone. anyway, he jumped the EOS correctly, from what i can see. of course, i'm not there.
i sent him a new coil, he installed, diodes all matched up (per him, not verified by me), same issue.
then he messed around with the right coil, which is just damm confusing to me, please just work on the issue by itself...lol.
next, sent him a new EOS (actually, i sent the lane change switch, the EOS switch, and a new cabinet switch).
EOS installed, looks correct from the fuzzy Jpeg sent, same exact damm problem.
right flipper is 100%.
had him cut that dumb capacitor, no change.
had him jump contacts on cabinet switch, no change.
sure, it MIGHT be a bad brand new coil. in which case, i'm going to fly to pinball life and slap a bitch.
is there something on the board that would deliver consistant 1/2 power to only 1 flipper? i highly doubt it...
it was 100% here, then got some STI magic, and now this issue. this is the stupidest tech call i've
encountered (i deal with 2 to 10 a week), and the guy lives in a pinball wasteland.
even on painside, my thread is crickets...just adding to my hate of early Williams alpha-numeric games.
