i have had this for years and really never worked,replaced the power supply(which was bad for sure) it did work every once in a while
replaced the i/o with brand new board,when i turn the game on it bongs once and goes to the tilt light by the coins display
the display shows no error code only the tilt light stays on
tried pushing the red button inside and does nothing the lock on side does nothing either
anybody know what is going on with it:)

Are all of the voltage LEDs lit up on the circuit board inside the card cage?

Hmm. Maybe reseat the chips on the board, too? Do you have any other chip sets to try? That's frustrating that it's not really giving you an error message.

The machine has two boards in the card cage located inside the machine just above the hopper.
The upper board is the I/O board and handles all the outputs for the machine
and the lower board is the CPU and runs the programs for the machine.

If you have a bad CPU it can cause the fail led to illuminate on the I/O board.
That is if you absolutely know that the I/O board is good

If you try another board you can swap your chips to the new board.
But you will need a RAM clear XU-3 chip in the denomination of the machine.
If it going to be a nickel machine, then that is a differant RAM clear chip than the one used for a quarter machine.

No, a clear will not do anything for you at this point.
Since you tried the I/O and the CPU, I'm not sure what else it could be.
I still believe the issue is with one of those boards. If you send me a PM I'll let you know what it will cost for me to check them out and let you know the status of the boards you purchased. Or if it was from a vender, maybe call him to tell them what the boards are doing in your machine.

Seen this before, check/replace the socket for XU-3 on the MPU board.
People go to clear the machine, they get bad data and it writes shit to the EEPROM.
If he gets good lites on the MPU, a single bonk and nothing the MPU is not running...
Even better, install a low profile ZIF socket there or a quality roundpin socket like a Augat.

Kirk, you might be on to something but I still think he has a bad board somewhere since he said he also has the fail light illuminated.

Also I sent you a PM about the run-a-way hopper syndrome you had before. Can you shed some light?
