Thanks for your help guys.
I inspected the coil that controlls the problem flipper. I'm going to try to explain in laymem's terms what I have found. Bare in mind I know very little about electronics and have only just started doing small repairs myself and trying to learn....so please go easy on me.
There is a small square plastic thing at one end of the coil where the 2 fine copper wires come out of the coil and soilder onto the ends of 2 small metal tabs connected to the plastic square thing at the end of the coil. At the other ends of the metal tabs is where wire from the machince are soildered to the coil.
What I found was that one of the metal tabs had snapped and had come out of the plastic thing and had pulled the fine copper wire going into the coil with it. This gives me 2 problems. A-the wire has snapped somewhere inside the coil so I cant find the other end. B-the metal tab is broken and no longer sits inside the plastic thing.
Is the plastic square with the metal tabs all part of the coil and if so do I just but a new coil, fit it and problem solved?
Hope this makes sense and there arnt too many spelling mistakes.
Thanks......Tim
