Title: Error code 40 - Bally 6000 will not clear Post by: luckystrike on March 18, 2011, 10:02:17 PM Hey guys,
I'm kind of new to the Bally games but I have a four reel slot that put out a 40 code after I cleared it. None of the reels will stop spinning. I picked up two of these and one machine runs perfect. I have swapped out the reels from the working machine, performed another clear, same results. Tried swapping the mpu also with the good reels in - no go. Also have reseated all of the molex connectors on the motherboard. Could a bad backplane motherboard cause this? Before I go too far, was hoping to get another opinion. Thanks in advance!

If not, why did you clear it? Title: Re: Error code 40 - Bally 6000 will not clear Post by: luckystrike on March 18, 2011, 10:43:40 PM This was a game I just got in. Had a low battery so I replaced that first and put the clear chips in. The other games were out of service when I first powered them up and it was easier to start with the clear to set them up.

Very interesting... :209- Are you working for a slot machine store/shop? I ask this of you because most slot machine homeowners who taken a long time in saving up their hard earned money to obtain a dream machine of their choice usually don't refer to their slots this way... Most store owners and workers just want to repair the machine - to get it out the door. Anyways, we figure out who you are later... :208- Is the code [40] still on the display? :129- Have you tried the ole' slap-the-cabinet-on-the-side method yet? :133- Do you have the proper manual and beverages for this machine that you/or someone else obtained? :134- :289- :222- We needs more details in order to help you. Remember..."The more you tell us - the more we will tell you". :89- Title: Re: Error code 40 - Bally 6000 will not clear Post by: luckystrike on March 19, 2011, 12:04:26 AM Yes, 40 code is still there. The clear goes through fine but after I install the original mains chips and power up, the reels nudge a couple times, spin and don't stop. If I close the door, they stop for a few seconds and do the same thing. I went to test 5 for the reels and they did stop at the home position but as soon as I exit test mode and close the door, keeps giving the 40 code.
I just swithched the original 2007 mains with a set of 2003 mains and used the 2003 clear for them-same problem exists. BTW-thanks for your input. Any help is greatly appreciated! Ahh, about me? Small scale business but I consider it a fun hobby that pays off. I have a lot of experience with IGT reel slots but still learning with the Bally. In the past, I have had a reel tilt on an s2000 caused by a bad mpu or a bad motherboard.
