Title: S2000 WBA question Post by: therockinelvis on June 18, 2013, 02:51:27 PM I had a MEi validater and changed to a WBA 13. There are 4 plugs on the wba harness and I only have 3 plugs on my machine. Is this a problem? The WBA is not lighting the bezel but does cycle when machine is turned on so it does not accept bills. Is this something in settings?

As we all know on the S2K Open and Close the Door twice to clear the BV CRC Mismatch error Harp Title: Re: S2000 WBA question Post by: therockinelvis on June 18, 2013, 10:51:31 PM No error or crc mismatch. It cycles as it should on start up and when box is installed. Just does not become bill ready.

You guess it the BV cycled. What did this little experiment tell you ?? Absolutely nothing another than the fact that the BV has power.
If you mess around with these WBAs long enough you learn the different sounds they make when they cycle and you know ahead of time if one has a chance of working or not. Guess what , a BV with IDO3 and a BV with IDO24 sound exactly the same !! Title: Re: S2000 WBA question Post by: therockinelvis on June 19, 2013, 05:43:00 PM I had the machine check the netplex. Then got the CRC mismatch, did door reset and all is good. Thanks

My S2000 machines currently have MEI validators in them and it has crossed my mind a couple times to also make the switch, but I haven't really been able to think up any good reasons to do it. Keep in mind, all my MEIs are working as they should. I actually prefer the cash box on the MEIs better, think they are faster and have better bill acceptance. Just wondering what pushed you to make the switch.... Thanks! Dan #2 Title: Re: S2000 WBA question Post by: therockinelvis on June 20, 2013, 01:23:56 PM I did a game conversion. The cabinet I took everything out of was a 9" top and I changed to a 16" including the Mei. The 16" cabinet did not have a bvd. I built a Frankenstien so to speak from the 9" to a 31" top. Once I had everything else done it was time for bvd. Jim from Blueridge suggested WBA. I agree about the cashbox.
