Hi all,
First I would like to say I really do enjoy this forum and all its members contributions.  I have sifted through numerous posts about this issue and have tried to recreate the steps explained on how to possible fix this error 23 issue.  I have recently added in a free play kit to this machine and after installing it according to specs provided, I performed a complete ram clear while using U23 and U48 clear chips.  I got a CL C for a complete clear and then replaced the game chips and turned machine back on,  I set the date and time and all is well until I shut the door and the reel goes through its motions and then alas I am left with this error 23.  I have went through the game options and checked to see what the setup looks like and it appears to all be in line with what I am trying to do.  I can go through the test 03 menu and all items register and perform as they are supposed to.  Bill acceptor validates with correct money denomination, free play kit adds 3 credits to the machine on the readout, etc, etc.  I am stumped at this point. 

The machine had an X-ceptor coin acceptor installed in it and the status led went out when I started to receive this error 23, when I went through the above test 03 options it would light up and accept the coins i had been dropping in.  When I closed the door it would still give me this error 23.  Hence the reason for wanting to try the free play kit. 

I'm sure someone here might have an answer or at least a direction to go in for troubleshooting this problem.

Thanks,
Brian

CHECK THE COIN OPTICS

I have looked them over very carefully and I have been able to get it to function during test mode, drop a qaurter and it will register on display, denominations are set right...  When exiting out of test mode, game goes through the motions and then right upon completion, error 23 and nothing.  If I could perform a test on it and it function, would that not tell me alignment is correct and that all is working properly, could there be something wrong elsewhere?

Thanks,
Brian

Have you tried a complete clear
