Title: Bally 6000...Bonus wheel problem Post by: lindam1 on September 29, 2012, 12:43:01 AM I have a 6000 "Cash Wheel" that boots with NO errors. The bonus wheel spin once and stops at 50, then it starts spinning again and never stops. I can play the game fine until it hits the bonus, then I get an 88 error. I have checked and cleaned the contacts on all the plugs and connectors. I have tried a different MPU and control board. DS1 is all on except 5. The controller board is Pt.# AS-03356-0535. At this point I am big time baffled. Any thoughts??

I had put in some different Mains and programmed the game trying to make it a "ticket printer" for the cash out. However, I don't think the top wheel ran constantly....I believe it had stopped... game played fine...UNTIL I hit the Bonus spin round ....tapped the Bonus button, wheel spun, landed on one number but "paid" something else...and then went to fatal error !
Come to find out the mains I had only work on Bally 6000 with no top box bonus games. So, I put the "original" Mains back in and settled for a "knock off" / key switch game. The Cash Wheel games will work immediately after clearing RAM. By that, I mean the game doesn't have to have the progressive programmed or working in order to have a functioning game. After Ram Clr... just remember to touch the Service/Change button to exit the "day/month/year" program mode. Not sure if all this is of any help to your situation. Check your U2 eprom in the controller box. corrupt ? not in properly ? leg bent ? Sometimes unplugging and re-seating connections help. Good Luck. |
