Title: Re: coins Post by: john7dee on October 24, 2008, 01:12:43 PM i am sorry i told you bally,-- it is a igt slant-- can you help ty john Title: Re: coins Post by: blueridgeslots on October 24, 2008, 01:18:00 PM Sounds like either the coin mech or cable is bad or a door not closing, does it have a bill validator, if so does it work and machine play, just not accept coins or is the game not playing at all, if this is so, what does the display show, and if you open and close the main door does the display go blank and then appear after a second?
Title: Re: coins Post by: john7dee on October 24, 2008, 01:57:38 PM the game plays fine,takes bills shut the door it plays ok it accepts the coins alright & puts up the credits ok--- the coins do not go in the hooper-- it has that long tube that was most likely a drop box at one time right below the hooper, that is where all the coins go instead of the hooper ty john Title: Re: coins Post by: blueridgeslots on October 24, 2008, 02:10:48 PM Either the diverter seloniod is stuck or it is getting a signal from the hopper that it is full, unplug the small 2 pin connector to the blue selonoid under the coin optics and see if that helps, if so you have power going to it if not the plunger is stuck on it
Title: Re: coins Post by: john7dee on October 24, 2008, 10:38:40 PM that did it thank you very much john Title: Re: coins Post by: a69mopar on October 24, 2008, 11:17:47 PM I wish my hoppers were full enough to trigger the diverters. Maybe I should get some tokens instead of the quarters.
hmm, I think this should be moved to the IGT topic.(global mod please.)

Thanks, Wayne Wayne, Thanks for the heads up! :3- Your wish is my command! :141- Now what slot machine theme does that remind you of? :25- :97- :97- :97- CaptainHappy :nlg- ADMINISTRATOR Title: Re: coins Post by: knagl on October 25, 2008, 09:26:55 AM Something to check with this in the future is if the hopper probe is getting grounded incorrectly (ie. detecting that the hopper is full and telling the solenoid to divert coins away). This could potentially happen if the probe is loose and touching some metal, or if the wiring going to it is getting grounded/shorted somewhere.

Good point knagl, find the root of the problem then it can be connected again. W |
