Now the AB - Does the coil pull in at all ? - You say you have to manually press the coil in. From the picture - they both look like they are pulling in ?? Or is that the angle of the photo ?

Thanks for the link will definately buy the flipper cab switches

As to the AB, when i test each coil individually with a battery, then they operate normally. its just when i start a game, neither coil does anything so i hit the arm myself 

Have we got a pulling hair out emoticon on this site, i really need it
