Both flippers are weak by the same amount.
Both flippers equally weak: check the flipper supply bridge
Cause: An open diode in the bridge rectifier feeding the flippers, or a cracked joint on it or its filter capacitor (uncommon).
Checks
- Test the bridge and inspect its and the capacitor's connections.
Fix
- Replace the bridge or repair the joints.
