Title: Dead S+ Post by: aklarry on June 19, 2010, 01:52:16 AM :103- Got a call today on a RW&B a guy just bought said said he saw it working before he bought it but was dead when he got it home.
When I got there and plugged it in it was dead display no noise no reel movement nothing except bill validator. Checked power supply and had all the voltages checked all connectors cleaned the burnt power connector and made sure I had voltage, tried the game board in another game came right up. Got any Ideas? maybe a bad motherboard?

After that, I guess the motherboard, but I've never seen that personally.
Also, with the machine unplugged, be sure to check for any coins or washers or nuts that may have come loose when the machine was moved -- if a coin or something got wedged under the motherboard or inside the power supply (I know you checked voltages, but still) it could cause some very weird stuff. |
