Title: Bally 903 or 918 (Mustang) wiring help
Post by: the-cowboy on June 24, 2011, 11:43:48 AM
I am restoring two bally 918 hold and draw models (Mustang). One is a Swedish model (918) and one is a US model (903).
Both suffered from severe damage, both on the outside as well as on the inside. All wiring have been tampered with.

I've ordered the original service manual as well as the original wiring schema (w-1046-1111d). So all wiring is now OK and the machine is working.
That is however with the original usage of the payout button installed. Every won credits are added to the total credit meter.

My question is the following. The US model has "All coins paid automatically" stated on the front. This means that every win is paid directly and will not be added to the total credits.
The pay out button is then only needed to pay out the credits still standing in the total credits.

Does anybody know which wiring has to be rerouted/modified so that the win credits are paid automatically/directly ?
I know that the blue-yellow (23) on the hopper cam #2 switch has to be disconnected in order to not add the credits to the total play meter.

Your help is appreciated.
