Title: S6000 Catastrophic Error - HELP PLEASE :(
Post by: peachpit on November 14, 2010, 11:08:50 AM
Hello,
i hope someone could help. I have a Bally S6000 model Bonus Frenzy. After switching the machine on, the display shows "88FF ERR" . I have looked into the manual and it says "Catastrophic Error" ; do RAM Clear, when it does not solved the problem you need a new MPU Board. So i have done a total RAM Clear several times. But anytime when switching on the machine the displays dont show "CH C" and "CL C" like it should; it shows "8100" and all lamps are flashing.

Does someone have an idea perhaps what i could do???? Or did i need a new MPU Board?

Thanks a lot!!!  :99-

Sounds like a Dead Battery did you check the voltage.

Hi Tim,

thanks for your help. I guess you are right. I have checked the voltage: 0 Volts!  :96- And i have just seen in the manual that "8100" means low bat. So i will buy a new battery tomorrow and try again from this. Do you think it will work then or will a low bat cause more damage?

Thanks again  :3-

Once you replace the battery and do the ram clear you will have to reset all your options. After that you should be fine to go !
