Test Report:

CHECK SWITCH 45 LEFT TROLL
CHECK SWITCH 52 RIGHT SLINGSHOT
CHECK SWITCH F4 LEFT FLIPPER
LEFT TROLL UP SWITCH IS BAD
RIGHT TROLL UP SWITCH IS BAD

Re-soldered loose wire on castle switch (white/yellow, green/white).

Left troll is really stiff. At first I thought maybe it was the coil sleeve, but after checking it out I saw that the collar on the troll cage is crooked due to a busted weld joint. I noticed that the right troll cage has been reinforced with additional welding. I pushed the collar on the left cage back into place with some pliers. We’ll see how long that lasts[1].

The right troll up switch appears to be bad.

The left flipper bushing has cracked again (FIXME – link to previous).

Changed bad bulbs for the some of the king’s men castles.

[1] In the fall of 2006 I replaced the troll cage with a freshy – 12/29/2006
