Most of the thumpers, bumpers and scoring switches were not working.  Reseated all the connectors in the cabinet.  Everything is working now.

The right flipper is broken.  Instead of firing and staying open, it continues to flip, rapidly.  I took the entire assembly apart and found that the Flipper Coil Stop was stripped.  I repaired that by getting new screws, lock washers and nuts.  The Flipper Coil Stop is as strong as ever. 
Pictures  However, the flipper is still stuck on "rapid fire".

Moved my pinball table from the garage to the basement.
