Lane Changer Problems

I have a straight lane changer, on one of the lanes the flipper can be activated and moves to allow the car to change lane, but when the next car approaches it wont move back, so that car also changes lane. Flipper can be reset by hand. Have taken the back of and all parts look to be connected correctly and no loose wires.

As it moves in one direction I assume its not the sensor, anybody else had this problem or got a solution, don't really want to spend £30 on a new one.

Thanks for all the advice and offers of help. Tried the flipper tilt test, which was not really conclusive, removeed the back and gentlly removed the sealing glue on the PCB.


Loose cable found on one of the feeds to the solenoid, dab of solder and a fiddly reassemble (love to know how the Chinese put these items together), tested ok and we are know back in business.
