just got igt s-plus double diamond need help

[DAS33]

i just bought this machine at a auction not knowing if it worked got home plugged it in and everything lit up but it wont take coins or bills, and says 6 paid and 2 coins played, this is my first machine any help would be great!!!!

[poppo]

Oh boy, where to start.

First does it do it's maiden spin of the reels when powered up?

Go to this link and use the guide to tell us what SS and SP chips are in there. After you are done, and you close AND latch the door, tell us if the display changes, and to what.

BTW, is this an upright or a slant top? And is the candle flashing and is so, what is it doing?

[DAS33]

its an upright machine. ill check what chips are in there looks confusing but ill figure it out also when i open machine the number goes to zero then i shut it the reels go back to same spot everytime and the #6 and #2 appear again....and no it doesnt do a maiden spin when i turn it on

[poppo]

Ok, actually that sounds good (except for the maiden spin).

Now look at the back of the coin comparator and make sure it has the same type of coin you are using.  See picture below. Then while you have the door open, press the little white button (bottom circle) and see if it puts a credit on the machine. If so, press the spin button with the door open.

i looked at the back, what am im looking for to tell me what kind of coin to use . when i tried to put a coin in it got stuck right up top i can see the top of the coin?

Click on the picture above. You can see that I have a quarter in there. You need to be playing the same type of coin that is in the comparitor.  So if it has a token, you need to play using tokens of the same type/size.

The comparitor snaps out (see the 4 plastic clips), and you can unjam any coins stuck in it. Pull it out from the bottom first, if there are coins up to the top.

If you can take a picture, just attach it to the post.

there is no coin there what do i do put one there?when i hit the white button the coin didnt drop but i could spin the reels

[poppo]

Ok, that is good (that it spins). Is it a 25 cent machine? If so, stick a quarter in there like in the picture above.

And what coin didn't drop? If there is one jammed in the entry slot you need to get it out first.

[DAS33]

yes its a 25cent machine i got compariter out does quater just slide in behind or do i have to take something apart nevermind i figured it out it slides

[poppo]

yes its a 25cent machine i got compariter out does quater just slide in behind or do i have to take something apart

Ok, first, you need to insert one on the back like in the picture above. That arm is sping loaded and you can slide it to the right to insert one.

But you indicated that you had a coin stuck in the slot (where you would put one in to play). Is that correct? If so, you should be able to fish it out with the comparitor removed.

[DAS33]

i got the quarter out... put one in the compariter and it worked i think im good all errors cleared what about the bill reader is that a hard fix by the way thanks for all the help ive been trying to figure this thing out for 3 days now... i feel like i owe some money...lol

Watch this clip and you will see how the coin is installed.  ignore the rest of the video just see how it slides.

Ok, now for the BV. First, can you tell us what model it is. It should say DBV-145 or DBV-200 on the front.

Is the front bezel where you insert the bills lit up? Not the red LED you might see, but the yellow bezel.

[jbshocks]

Looks like our posts crossed.  Congrats getting it going and K+ poppo

[DAS33]

its a dbv-200-b123 face up

[poppo]

its a dbv-200-b123 face up

Ok, but is the bezel lit? If so, does it try to take bills? Also go back to that first link and tell us what the numbers are showing. It will be easier to give directions if we know what SP chip you have.

Also when you power up the machine, does the BV cycle? If so, check out this post and watch and listen to the videos and see if yours sounds like the normal one.

it powers up when i turn it on but the bezel is not lit. and my reset button is not plugged in i followed the directions to find out the sp chip and relized the black white wire from button is not connected and i dont know where it plugs in at. this is the white button under the power switch the door pushes in when shut correct

When it powers up does it sound like the normal video?

The self test button is a small white button to the left of the power switch (like shown in the link). Not the bigger cherry switch that you may have.

What we need to determine is if the BV is not enabled in the software, or if it's not enabling because it has a problem.

[poppo]

it sounds like the first video

Ok, that is good. But we still need to know what SP chip you have. We can look at the board, but you will still need to be using the self test button, so best to get familiar with it.

BTW, keep posting in this thread so we don't get lost.

[DAS33]

SORRY IT TOOK SO LONG KEEPS LOGGING ME OUT HAD TO SET TO FOREVER ANYWAY IVE SEARCH FOR THIS TEST BUTTON I CANT SEEM TO FIND IT ANY WHERE NEAR THE POWER SWITCH

[DAS33]

hold on i found it now let me figure this out it was on the back of the box

[poppo]

If it's not like this (circled), it might be behind the power switch.

<edit> I see you found it.

[DAS33]

i think this is what your looking for in the winne rs paid its blinking 4418 to 0 then in thecredits its 0932

[poppo]

Great. You have a SP932.

Ok, so close the door and wait until it resets. Then open the door and press the self test button 2 times. You should have a 0 in the coins played and a 5_x displayed in the winner paid (x might be 0, 1 or 2). Now turn the jackpot key until you have a 9_x displayed in winner paid. It will either be 9_0 or 9_1. 9_0 means the BV is not enabled and you will need a set chip.

Attached is the PSR for the SP932

[DAS33]

i shut door and reset pushed button twice there were 0s across the board then turned jackpot key until 9 showed up now blinking 9 in winners paid ? is that right
