Title: Williams Flash RHS flipper Help
Post by: Pinballrocks on August 10, 2021, 07:46:46 PM

Hi all,
I am not convinced my RHS flipper EOS switch is wired correctly to the solenoid
Does anyone have a Williams flash that they could snap a pic of the wiring/ connection points as I cant seem to find a clear picture of this.
Any help would be great.


Cheers
Paul.

Thanks for the pics.
Does the far LHS leaf blade have no wires attached?
Also i cant quite make out which wires are soldered to which switch blade and which ones are connected to the solenoid.
Sorry to be a pain and i appreciate your help mate.
Cheers Paul

Have a look over the Reconditioning Job I did years ago ;

Or jump to the page with the photo. If that does not help (your photos were not that clear to me) - Do you have the manual / schematic ?

Hi Nino, I checked the picture on your link and it is the best i have seen but unfortunately the main part of the switch blades that i am unsure of is not obvious. It looks like they might be soldered together on the last switch blade.
I do have a manual. Please have a look at the picture of my switch stack. All wires will have to be tidied up as the last person to solder them was obviously a cowboy. Thanks for everyones input on this.
I really just need clarification on the switch blade that currently has no wire on it?
Cheers
Paul

That unused terminal on your switch should go to the upper right flipper to activate it

Then it has been modified, the disconnected switch must've been bad. Found the same thing on a Flash i worked on several months ago.
