Title: BALLY CONTINENTAL COIN MULTIPLIER PROBLEM Post by: HOMEARCADE on April 12, 2011, 04:45:01 AM Someone gave me a Bally Continental slot machine. When only playing one coin, it works fine. If you play more than one coin, it will accept the coins but give you credit for only 1 coin. The machine will pay out properly for only 1 coin regardless of how many coins inserted. Can anyone give me an area of the machine that i should start looking at for this problem.

First coin causes it to reset, after which it steps up for each coin. For some reason it isn't stepping up. Maybe it's jammed, maybe the step-up coil is burned out, maybe the reset coil is stuck in, or maybe the mechanical detents are sticky with dirt and grease and the ratchet isn't holding it.
