You're right Chuck, it definitely looks bad. However it was brand new when the rebuild was done. I actually have cleaned it prior to coming on the site now and have also adjusted it to enable a larger gap when the flipper is in the up position (still maintaining the closed pos when down). Any idea why it got this way so soon??

I have tested it with the LHS flipper fuse as I'm out of fuses and can't faulter it. Quietly I'm treating this as problem solved but until I get my fuses and give T2 a good serving I'll keep my mouth shut. I did several flips and held the flipper on for some time and no fuse blow.

If this is solved I've gotta give a big thanks to Nick and Marty who kept screaming at me about the EOS. Owen also said this would probably be the case (thanks)

Just had a one flipper game with the THS flipper in the up for the entire game and no problems thus far.

What was the value of the fuse F101 ? So you moved it to F102 and the game works fine ? I'll bet it was a higher rated fuse..
