Just to be clear, what's the current entry in register 27? Is that the one you're trying to change to enable credit mode?

Don't know if this will help but it certainly won't hurt. Try doing a RAM clear.  This procedure depends on the year of manufacture for 5000+ machines but it works for mine.  With the machine turned off, unseat the i/o board from the motherboard (you don't need to remove it, just pull it towards you a quarter inch or so).  Now while holding in the Pseudo Coin In Button (inside of door) power up the machine.  Turn machine back off, reseat the i/o board and the RAM will be clear.

At that point all of the machine's options will be reset back to default values.  I believe it will also clear any stored credits.
