The spinner no longer registers in switch test, while other switches work.
Spinner stops registering: broken wire on an upper flipper EOS switch
Cause: On this game one wire (orange) is daisy-chained through the flipper end-of-stroke switches and on to the spinner. It had broken at the upper flipper's EOS switch, cutting the spinner off.
Checks
- Follow the spinner's switch wiring back on the schematic and check continuity along the shared wire at each EOS switch.
Fix
- Resolder or replace the broken wire at the EOS switch.
