Title: Help needed with Bally V5500 Poker Machine Post by: ucanwin on April 15, 2013, 09:41:14 PM HELP!!!
I bought a nonworking Bally V5500 poker machine. By nonworking, I mean the fluorescent lights light up and that is it. I suspect the power supply is where to start, and would like some instructions on how to go about that if possible. I have the power supply out of the machine. Is there a schematic available to help me locate the points to check for the various voltages? What are the correct voltages? See Pictures below. Thanks for any help that you might be able to give.

Power on the machine and check for the green leds on the MPU board. All should be illuminated. If one or a few are not, then chang the power supply.

Please excuse my ignorance, but by MPU board do you mean the board above the monitor? If so, there are no green led's on my board and when the board is in place, you can't see the components because of the front panel on the carrier blocks it. I see no green led's anywhere on my machine except for one on the hopper which I am quite sure has only to do with the hopper itself.

Ya, No voltage leds on that one. Sorry. Title: Re: Help needed with Bally V5500 Poker Machine Post by: proten on April 16, 2013, 12:59:27 AM The S5500 has the same power supply.
You can get the schematics on this page. MK14-S5MOD-9800 But you should get a spare for testing. http://newlifegames.net/nlg/index.php?action=downloads;cat=101 (http://newlifegames.net/nlg/index.php?action=downloads;cat=101) Title: Re: Help needed with Bally V5500 Poker Machine Post by: ucanwin on April 16, 2013, 11:46:26 AM Thank you for your help. I downloaded the schematics as you suggested and also ordered a replacement power supply.

I checked the bridge rectifier and it looks good. Any thoughts???? Title: Re: Help needed with Bally V5500 Poker Machine Post by: proten on April 23, 2013, 12:19:07 AM Have you checked the power transformer
and circuit breakers ? Sorry I wont be much help as all I have for a manual is the set up and operator manual. Title: Re: Help needed with Bally V5500 Poker Machine Post by: ucanwin on April 23, 2013, 01:46:24 AM I checked the circuit breakers and they are ok. I will have to see about checking the transformer.
