Title: Aristocrat 5-reel coin in lighting Post by: MarkInAz on March 13, 2010, 11:30:27 PM Greetings,
I'm having a lighting issue with my 5-reel 5-coin Elan slot machine. Seems the 1st coin-in light wont shut off, ever. When I got the machine the bulb was burned out. Now that I've replaced it I see why it was burned out- its always on. I suspect a bad transistor or triac. I could use some diagrams please. This machine is an Elan but it has a circuit board "card-cage" in the upper box so I suspect its very similar to the Esprit.

I'm still stuck on this one. Can anyone give an educated guess which transistor might control the coin #1 lamp. Assuming it's similar to an IGT/Aristocrat machine there is a good chance its the same one. Thanks Title: Re: Aristocrat 5-reel coin in lighting Post by: Op-Bell on March 22, 2010, 05:02:44 AM Nothing controls the first coin lamp. It's impossible to play a game without the first coin, so they didn't bother to put in a circuit to switch it off.
