Now that I have the cabinet I/O card in right. ( dag Newbie)  ON my doiuble diamond 5 credit s2000 I have power to button lights and coin comp. On boot up 3 button lights come on and stay on. They are the service light,cash out light and the bet one credit light. Also the green light is liit on the coin comp. I'm not sure they should be stayig lit. The green light is lit on the coin comp. When the door is open I can see it lit. I would like help with this. Thanks Rick

No the button lights should not be lit you should be able to toggle the service light on and off when you push it. also if you push the self test button on the MPU you should get the cashou service spin reels and bet max to light up pushing the service and cashout should toggle threw the acounting and options menus. The coin comparitor light should be lit. Those I/O cards are very sensitive and if you have removed or inserted it while the machine was on it could have damaged it.  

Those cards are electronically fragile, static sensitive and what not. You didn't play with it while the machine was on did you?

I would never remove any card when the power is on, but I did have it in backwards. Now I know how it goes in.

Progress report.
I changed out the MPU with a board I had an some of the problems went away. They are coin in jam and the button lights. Now I have a main battery low error. If I leave the machine on will it charge up? Your I would like your input .    Thanks Rick

The Main battery, button cell, is not rechargeable.  You have to replace it.

Ok , thanks , how is it put in? How do I remove the old one

It's soldered in.  Buy a replacement, unsolder the old one and solder the new one in.

Thanks for your help
