Title: My Sigma SG50 Slot Machine Post by: riverratmike on May 13, 2012, 04:29:36 PM Picked this machine up for $50. I've gone through it and cleaned it all up. It's in really great shape. I'm working on getting it fixed. Right now I'm getting some error codes and also I'll be playing the game and it will just lock up. Most of the time I can get it restarted but that doesn't last long. Here are some photos I took of it last week.

in this photo of the machine on the display is reading 0P This error code is displayed almost all the time. Not sure what it means. Title: Re: My Sigma SG50 Slot Machine Post by: riverratmike on May 13, 2012, 04:35:43 PM ===================================

Title: Re: My Sigma SG50 Slot Machine Post by: FORDSBS on May 13, 2012, 04:44:43 PM I like those old Sigma SG50B. That was my first slot.
I had one that act like your machine. Another power supply took care of it. Title: Re: My Sigma SG50 Slot Machine Post by: Mr. Dinoman on May 13, 2012, 04:58:54 PM You need to put in a sample coin in your comparitor...

Looks so nice all lit up at night. I will be inserting a coin in the coin comparitor when I return home. Hope that fixes my problem.

Looks nice! Title: Re: My Sigma SG50 Slot Machine Post by: riverratmike on May 14, 2012, 05:21:33 AM Did you pick that up in havasu? Looks nice! Yes, for $50 Can't go wrong at that price. Title: Re: My Sigma SG50 Slot Machine Post by: Jim on May 14, 2012, 12:22:12 PM putting a coin in the cc is a good first step. how did you get it to play? if you bypass the cc and drop coins directly into the optics and you exceed the limits of the machine then it will lock-up. (tilt)
if all the displays go out when the machine locks up then you probably have a bad power supply. Hope this helps Jim Title: Re: My Sigma SG50 Slot Machine Post by: FORDSBS on May 14, 2012, 12:25:57 PM I like those old Sigma SG50B. That was my first slot. I had one that act like your machine.

Hope this helps Jim I was using the BV to get my credits therefore I could play the machine that way. Title: Re: My Sigma SG50 Slot Machine Post by: riverratmike on May 15, 2012, 03:07:16 AM You need to put in a sample coin in your comparitor... well guess what, that fixed it. It works perfectly now. No more locking up. Only thing is now, I have (0P) displayed just to the left of the credit numbers. Maybe some kinda error code, I don't know. Still is working normally though. Thanks for all the help everyone! Title: Re: My Sigma SG50 Slot Machine Post by: riverratmike on May 16, 2012, 03:43:16 AM well I'm not out of the wood yet with this slot machine. Just tonight started to replace all the burned out light bulbs in the front switches/buttons and guess what? Lock up again. It seems the power supply doesn't like any heavy load. If I remove one or two of the connectors that power a working light bulb in the switch, it will clear and be able to play most of the time. I would think the BV would put a huge load on the power supply but that doesn't seem to effect it at all. Anyone, any ideas?

Title: Re: My Sigma SG50 Slot Machine Post by: Mr. Dinoman on May 16, 2012, 01:24:28 PM Or try LED's...
Title: Re: My Sigma SG50 Slot Machine Post by: Jimise on May 16, 2012, 11:26:54 PM I put LED's in my sigmas, They work great......
Or try LED's... Title: Re: My Sigma SG50 Slot Machine Post by: riverratmike on May 17, 2012, 01:50:26 AM I put LED's in my sigmas, They work great...... that is a great idea. Looks nice. Where did you find those? Or try LED's... I took my machine completely apart this afternoon. Removed all the connections, MPU and Power supply. Then reconnected everything and now it's working like it should. For how long, I'll never know. There is a IC 16 pin that looks like it's been getting hot and has burned black the PCB board a little. I'm keeping my fingers crossed I don't have anymore lock ups. All the 12 volts lamps in the machine are hooked up too. Title: Re: My Sigma SG50 Slot Machine Post by: Jimise on May 17, 2012, 02:21:51 AM That's great you got it working again!
Sometimes that's all it takes, Just checking and reconnecting everything. I know with my sigmas I seem to get error codes a couple times a month. They are a headache sometimes, But they are fun when they work :96- I got the bulbs on eBay, Basically 12 volt automotive ones. I think that would look really cool with your colored buttons, Nice and bright :89- Have fun with it ! :287- I put LED's in my sigmas, They work great...... that is a great idea. Looks nice.

It should look really nice with the LED bulbs. |
