igt s2000 door closure m and general reel tilt

[brandyc]

Getting general reel tilt and door closure m at the same time also all 3 wheels spin without stopping. This is my first machine. Was working fine and then the reels spun and these errors showed. All the talk of sensors etc., is foreign to me. Is there an easy fix? Where and what is the reset button and will this clear it? Anyone in Vegas that can fix this thing? Thanks to anyone with answers.

try opening the door and with door open turn the jackpot reset key.

closure M means that main door was open and is now closed that will go away once you are able to play a game

The problem your having is an indication that your door optics may not be aligned properly, either because the door isn't latched tightly or they're just miss-aligned and need to be adjusted. Could also be that they are going bad, but this is less likely

hi brandyc & 

i suggest permanently bypassing the optics if this machine is for home use and you are willing to spend a few minutes doing it; it's really pretty simple even if electronics doesn't intersest you at all.  the fix that zarobhr posted will clear the tilt when it happens but if you bypass the optics and belly door switch completely then you wont have to worry about it in the future.

reply #9 has bunkers bypass method and #19 has Fosters method.  wither way all you will have to do is find the right colored wires and tie them into the right spot to get rid of the door optics.  for the belly door switch you just need to connect them together and tape them somewhere safe.  g/l
