On an s+ if you win/cashout a pay that exceeds the number of coins in the hopper, you'll have to keep dumping coins back in till it finishes paying. The jackpot reset key won't clear the win. You might set your hopper limit lower for future avoidance of the problem though

If the coins are clear and the hopper is ready to run, then yes, I think you can clear it by closing the door and turning the reset key. Been awhile since I worked on an S+ though

The list of error codes and their resolutions is linked to in a sitcky post at the top of this S+ category (http://newlifegames.net/nlg/index.php?topic=17279.0 (http://newlifegames.net/nlg/index.php?topic=17279.0) ).   :71-

A 3200 error does not require a turn of the jackpot reset key.  Open the door, clear the jam, close and latch the door.  The machine should clear the error and attempt to continue paying out of the hopper.

If you're still getting a 3200 code after opening and closing the door, ensure that nothing is blocking the hopper optics, and ensure that your door optics are lining up when you close and latch the door.

When you close and latch the door, does the LED display go blank for a second or two before the 3200 returns to the screen, or does it stay on there the entire time?  If it goes blank and then comes back, the machine still believes that the hopper is jammed.  If the 3200 never leaves the display when you close the door, the machine still thinks there's a door open (check your bill stacker (cash can) access door, belly glass door, and ensure that the latch is fully down and that your door optics are lining up).
