Hello: I have a RFM. A container refugee. There are three Jet Bumpers in the upper left corner that do not work. I have checked the fuses and they seem OK. Any ideas or guidance would be appreciated. Thanks.

Do you have a DMM (digital multi meter), check if the coils get power first. Also Might be a bad connector somewhere, even on a board, since its multiple bumpers affected.
I ran the system diagnostics and it says to "check switch" for all three jet bumpers. What does that mean? Thanks.
if you put it into switch test, press on the skirts and see if they register a switch closure. If not, visually inspect the "spoon" switch under each pop bumper to ensure the switch is a) gapped properly and b) when the skirt is pressed it closes the siwtch. If that all checks out you need to look for a broken wire, and I would start with the common one between all 3 switches.

Thanks Menace. When I press on the skirts, the spoon switches appear to close properly. Although only the left bumper makes a sound when I press on the skirt. As for a common wire, I can't find one. There is some sort of metal wire that connects the left bumper and the bottom bumper with the playfield but does not connect to the right bumper. I have enclosed a picture. Thanks.

You really need to put the machine in switch test and make sure that the switches are registering when you push on the skirts. If they aren't that's likely your problem. If they do register, then you need to break out the multimeter and check the coils for power, if they are ok, then you're likely in to a board issue.
You really should add your location to your profile so maybe someone local to you could offer to help. Just sayin.
