I fired up my S2000 today and it kept giving me "Paper Out" errors, no other activity. So I powered off, pulled the MPU, and sprayed the end connectors with DeOxit. Then I replaced it and powered on, all errors gone. Don't underestimate the power of this stuff, I use it on all electronics and it actually "eats" the corrosion from the pins! If you are shopping a machine, I would use it on all electrical connectors wherever possible. Just a tip.

Yes,
I second this...pretty much all slot machines are like old pinball machines with their crappy pins.
But the real problem is not the pins - it's the poor , cheap quality receptor pins.
I highly recommend any machine homeowner to change these if possible to trifurcon receptor pins.
They will grab MORE of the pin area.
Especially the receptor pins in the molexes on S+'s that go from the power supply to the motherboard.
If you are not able to change these - your best bet is to get a can of Deoxit and spray the crap outta them.
This stuff totally de-oxidizes the residue right off the bloody pins!
I don't know what's in it but it works!

On the somewhat different note, my personal S2000 had a problem with
poor ground receptor pins on the speaker lines.
The speakers sounded horrible with very a loud hum.
Reminded me of my first car I ever owned - a piece of you-know-what Toyota Corolla
4-on-the-floor with a "spiffy" A.M. radio...yes, I typed it correctly...A.M. radio...LOL
Anyways, a little Deoxit and some properly soldered in resistors
on the white speaker wires proved to do the trick!
The machine sounds soooo sweeeet!
