Title: S2000 - 18" lamp behind reel glass not working Post by: DannyG804 on November 03, 2011, 12:08:07 AM While sitting in idle mode, lamp went out and machine reset power. I swapped out lamps from my other s2000's, still dark. Where do I start....
Thanks, Danny Title: Re: S2000 - 18" lamp behind reel glass not working Post by: cowboygames on November 03, 2011, 12:12:21 AM Try swapping the ballast, located on the laft inside wall of the cabinet next to the #1 reel with the belly or top box ballast. Don't plug the other one back in till you figure out if it's the problem though

Title: Re: S2000 - 18" lamp behind reel glass not working Post by: DannyG804 on November 03, 2011, 12:35:05 AM Can't get the potentially bad one out, one screw is hidden way back. I took out the ballast from the belly. Should I connect to that one, since I know that one's good?

Title: Re: S2000 - 18" lamp behind reel glass not working Post by: Foster on November 03, 2011, 12:40:39 AM take out reels 1 and 2 if needed, all three ballast are the same.
The reels pull straight out. no releases if you have a short reel glass the reels may be a bit stubborn when you try to remove them, long reel glass the reels seem to come out easier. Title: Re: S2000 - 18" lamp behind reel glass not working Post by: cowboygames on November 03, 2011, 12:42:32 AM Absolutely, and the back nut on the reel glass ballast is a lot easier to reach if you take reels 1&2 out first and use a nutdriver
Title: Re: S2000 - 18" lamp behind reel glass not working Post by: DannyG804 on November 03, 2011, 12:44:08 AM It is the ballast. :259- to cowboy for being first and coorslight, a pm is comin ur way.

Foster I'm nitpicking but there are two different ones. One for 15" bulb and a different one for 18" Notice I didn't say they won't work. Title: Re: S2000 - 18" lamp behind reel glass not working Post by: Foster on November 03, 2011, 02:09:24 AM I was referring to the 18" version anyways.
I have not come across any 15" bulbs in a S2000. I am thinking those are either for the short reel glass or top box when a Vision or reel touch display. I would love to have a vision and or reel touch setup to mess around with (BIG HINT) Title: Re: S2000 - 18" lamp behind reel glass not working Post by: Buzz on November 03, 2011, 02:19:09 AM Foster You should have bought the one I got from Kirk last Sat. Round Top, 5 reel Mata Hari, vision, coin handling, BV, and a printer. ( no top glass ) It had a battery error, installed a new battery and never did use a key chip, it booted right up.
Title: Re: S2000 - 18" lamp behind reel glass not working Post by: cowboygames on November 03, 2011, 02:19:48 AM The reel touch uses an 8" round flourescent bulb, 2 side by side actually, if you're ever up this way, swing by and I'll show you. Maybe even add some weight to your vehicle for the return trip :72-
