Title: True or False: ALL IGT S+ machines use a 24V coin comparator? Post by: jasonmichael on October 11, 2013, 09:52:58 PM I've heard varying things and I don't want to :50- bake :50- any comparators/boards.
Is it true that ALL IGT S+ machines have a 24V comparator and that ALL S2000 machines have a 13 V Comparator? And, if not, is there some relatively easy way to determine which is which when you're changing comparator sizes amongst machines? Thanks!

Post by: Buzz on October 11, 2013, 11:32:00 PM Jason What Rick said is true, A 24V will have two Gray wires going to the rake solenoid. 13V, those wires are Green, But I'm pretty sure some 12V have Green wires. If there isn't a tag, I don't know how to tell the difference in a 12 and a 13. ( If it smokes it was the wrong one )

Thirteen in a twenty four circuit you could smoke it, but the plugs wouldn't match anyway so you'd have a really hard time doing it. Seems like someone did mention one time that with the right pigtail a 24v could be used in an S2000, or it might have been the other way around. I can't remember for sure now

Damn shame that thing was prob. good. Folks as stated get the correct equipment and be sure unless you have some spares to experiment on. I have Fried and BURNT many things over the years out of haste and stupedity. Just a shade smarter now--- :71-.

Post by: rickhunter on October 12, 2013, 12:49:42 PM Ross, I am told that sometimes the part that is attached to the colored wires is swapped out by shop techs in order to quickly fix the comparator by using a donor comparator of the wrong voltage. I also have S+ comparitors with grey wires and some with green wires. What I have not tried, is taking one with grey wires and take a 13 volt comparitor and switch out the part to test. I don't want to take the chance of blowing a good working part.
