Title: Bally 1097-4 on freeplay Post by: Neonkiss on October 06, 2008, 11:33:36 PM I have a Bally 1097-4 that has these symptoms. The Machine plays without a coin but does not pay off. The handle switch trips after the cycle is compleated yet no coin is needed.
I did find this as a solution in an old Bally trouble shooting manual for E/M machines. SOLUTION: In the upper unit their is a stack of switches which touch a post on a plastic step up disc. One of thees wires going to one of these switches is broken or need to be soldered. My problem is this is a low boy model and it has no upper unit. I have checked A and C stack switches and all appear to be good. Any suggestions?

I got it working. Only one issue left. I see the payout schedule has any position of a star should pay 18 That's the only payout not working. I'll look this weekend to trace out the star wiring and see why it's not paying K+ for all your help. :131- :3- :3- |
