Title: E-1088 Reels Spin Post by: jasontschetter on December 09, 2009, 02:41:17 AM A puzzle (hopefully a simple one) for the E-series experts...
I have a E-1088 that was working perfectly until we moved it (removed the hopper and reels, moved the unit, and reinserted hopper and reels). Symptoms are: * insert coin - diverter does not send to hopper, just drops out the reject * manually tripping coin acceptor - Registers Coin Inserted correctly showing me that basic I/O is working... * Reels are spinning free, all reel mechanics appear to be working fine, I can hit the release, pull the arm and they spin, but they never lock * Reel solenoids can be released manually and engage properly, but they never seem to engage automatically * If I manually activate the reels with the machine on I will eventually get a 41 000 indicating a detected improper reel spin I'm assuming that I need to reset the logic to recognize the reel position, but do not know how and am stuck. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Would one of you please post an E-1000 manual? I have not been able to find one in the Submitted Files. Many thanks! Jason Let me know if anyone needs anything on any of the following: Bally EM 955 (Works like a champ!) Bally V- 1252 (Resurrected from the ashes!) Bally E-1088 (Soon to be working!)

First off, thank you for the tip, you were spot-on, it was the 8A fuse for the 50v circuit. I wasn't able to find a direct equivalent, but on closer inspection, the fuse that was in that circuit was a 3A 32v and the much lower wattage explains why it blew. We were able to put in a 5A 32v from RadioShack and we're back up and running (but expect it to blow if anything sticks). Many thanks! Jason |
