Yamasa Pink Panther pachislo machine, hopper runs continuously?

[BR549 Auto Sales]

Just went to check out one of these machines today and when you turn the game on, the hopper will dispense anywhere from 15-25 tokens and after that the hopper just keeps spinning. As the tokens are dispensed they are engaging the coin counter switch (not sure if that is what it is called) because as they go through the LED on the top main board is flashing upon every coin being dispensed. Is there something I can do to fix this? On the inside of the machine is 1 toggle switch for power, then another toggle switch right above it and 1 green button and one red button. I also checked the hopper and do not see anything jammed in it, plus the tokens will dispense when I turn the machine on, so I think the hopper is fine. I do not have an owners manual for this machine, is there some type of clear/reset that I can perform to get this game up and running again?

Thanks,

David

Is the machine in the middle of one of the 5-MINUTE PAYOUT MODES ??

if so you have to keep feeding the hopper until the BONUS IS OVER --if the meters are recording the coin out it sounds like it hit a bonus jackpot that some of those continure for 5--10 minutes --- The lights flash the music plays it keeps going on and on  

or are you saying the hopper is   just randomly is spinning and spitting out tokens for no apparent reason ??

the other toglgles and buttons and door key are for setting the odss of machine that can be set up to 103% payout in most cases
after its done paying out tokens --you can then re set the payout odds .. but once it hits a bonus round and it will again !!
it goes through that spitting out tokens for forever again ..

the odds are displayed as numbers on the L E D display on front 1--6

what type of hopper is it ??
a pinwheel
or a holley hopper ??---
my guess  a holley hopper --with the holes the tokens actualy fall into inside the hopper before the spin out .

The hopper just continues o spin, even after the initial 15-25 tokens are dispensed, the reels are not spinning though, won't they normally be spinning if it was stuck in a bonus game? Also there are no lights or sounds during all of this happening either. I will include some pictures. Thanks for the reply.

CHECK THE OPTICS ON THE HOPPER WHERE THE COIN PASSES TO SEE IF ITS ALIGNED TO REGISTER COINS PASSING IT .
OR IF A WIRE OFF IT ??


IF YOU CAN TURN IT ON FLIP THE TOGGLE UP PRESS THE RED BUTTON OR GREEN BUTTON A SINGLE NUMBER SHOULD DISPLAY ON THE FRONT PANEL OF DOOR ..1--6  BY MEMORY 1 IS 103% --104% PAYOUT   YOU CAN PRESS THE BUTTON TO TOGGLE THROUGH NUMBERS.. TO SAVE SETTING  YOU PRESS DOWN ON SPIN LEVER FLIP TOGGLE BACK DOWN OR UP HOWEVER THEY WIRED IT ??THAT SAVES SETTING ..

 
IN ORDER TO PLAY AGAIN THAT TOGGLE SWITCH HAS TO BE BACK WHERE IT WAS  TO RESUME PLAY ..

IF YOU HAVE THE KEY ?? A TURN TO THE LEFT COUNTER CLOCKWISE MACHINE ON DOOR CLOSED
ON SOME YAMMASA MACHINES CLEARS IT .. WITH DOOR CLOSED POWER ON ..

HOPE THIS HELPS I HAVE A MANUAL
 OR GO ONLINE ITS A GENERIC MANUAL THAT COVERS MOST ALL SKILL STOP MODELS "NET" YAMMASA - ETC

I did not see an optic that the coins pass through, just a micro switch that closes each time a coin is dispensed. I can keep adding tokens to it to see if it will finally stop. I thought that these type of machines would only drop 50 or so tokens at any given time? Also there is no switch inside the machine that the door key would activate, just a latch to lock it. If it is in a bonus round, why are the lights and music not working?

Thanks

LOL 50 TOKENS IS JUST THE START OF A BONUS WIN .THEY WILL ONLY LOAD 50 TOKENS AT A TIME IN MOST CASES .. IN OTHER WORDS PUTTING CREDITS ON MACHINE YOU CAN DROP ONLY 50 TOKENS IN ..

BUT ONCE A BONUS ROUND HITS YOU BETTER HAVE THE KEY AND DOOR READY TO OPEN --TO KEEP LOADING THAT HOPPER UNTIL IT GOES THROUGH A SILLY 5--10 MINUTE BONUS ROUND SPITTING OUT TOKENS .. SOME THE REELS SPIN OTHERS THEY SPIN ONCE AUTOMATICALLY HIT A WINNING COMBO AND KEEP PAYING UNTIL ALL THE ROW OF L.E.D LIGHTS HAS BEEN CLEARED OUT . EVEN IF YOU TRY NOT TO HIT THE SKILL STOP BUTTONS IT WILL STOP AFTER A GIVEN TIME .. WHEN YOU TRY TO LOOSE HITTING THE BUTTONS ITS PROGRAMED TO WIN SO THEY LAND ON WINNING SYMBOLS -------
THEY DRIVE YOU NUTS ON A BIG WIN .. THEY WILL PAY OUT OVER 500 TOKENS EASY .. THATS WHY YOU HAVE TO KEEP OPENING DOOR TO FILL HOPPER

Thank you sir, I will keep loading it and see what happens. What about the lights and music? I think the lady said that her husband had disabled it somehow a time before under similar circumstances where the game went nuts.

check for the wires going to the two speakers --many people stuff the speakers with cotton and reinstall them others wire in a volume control --others disconnect them  .. whatever your preference .. they are set to loud from factory - its because there in a casino thats noisy to begin with ..

Great news brother!

[ROCKET]

I GET YELLED AT FOR TYPING IN CAPS ..ITS MY TRADEMARK ..REASON IS I USE A 36 -INCH DISPLAY
SO LOWER CASE -I CAN BARELY SEE.. BUT TWO PICTURES INCLUDED 2 MORE TO FOLLOW
ONE IS THE KEY YOU TURN ON WHILE MACHINE IS ON --ON THE FRONT OF MACHINE IT WILL HAVE A NUMBER IN THE CREDIT WINDOW.---1----6  6 IS AROUND 104%-105%-106% PAYOUT FROM THE DOCUMENTS FROM VARIOUS MAKERS .
NUMBER 1 IS AROUND 93% PAYOUT .. I WILL POST A PICTURE OF THE MANUAL BUT INCASE IT DOES NOT COME OUT GOOD ENOUGH TO READ .

SETTING PAYOFFS -OPEN DOOR TURN POWER OFF FROM INSIDE TOGGLE OR ROCKER  SWITCH PUT KEY IN RESET MOST ARE JUST LEFT THERE .. BY THE METERS TURN IT TO RIGHT . THEN TURN MACHINE BACK ON FROM TOGGLE OR ROCKER SWITCH .

ON FRONT OF MACHINE IT WILL SAY WHAT NUMBER YOUR ODDS ARE SET AT 1-2-3-4-5-6- ETC

==================================================================================
WITH THE KEY ON PRESS TURN MACHINE OFF AND BACK ON WITH KEY STILL LEFT ON INSIDE CABINET YOU THEN PRESS ONE OF THE TWO BUTTONS IT WILL ADVANCE THE NUMBERS 1-6WHEN YOUR HAPPY WITH THE SETTING ? HOLD DOWN SPIN HANDLE ON FRONT AND TURN KEY OFF ..THAT HOLDS AND SAVES THE PAYOUT SETTING .


THEN TURN KEY INSIDE BACK AND MACHINE IS READY TO PLAY AGAIN . ON THE VOLUME MY MACHINE HAS A SWITCH FOR HIGH AND LOW VOLUME NEXT TO A SPEAKER THEY BOTH ARE TO HIGH ..COTTON IS YOUR BEST TRICK OR WIRE IN CVOLUME CONTROL .

[ROCKET]

HERE IS THE TEXT ON SETTING ODDS IT SHOULD COME OUT & PICTURE OF THE SPEAKER VOLUME CONTROL .
LAST INVEST IN A AUTOSTOP CONTROL FOR THE 3 SET OF DOUBLE WIRES GOING TO THE 3 SKILL BUTTONS .
THEY RUN ABOUT 39.00 BUCKS ON EBAY ---OR YOU CAN MAKE ONE OUT OF A TIMED TRANSITTOR THAT WILL COMPLETE THE CIRCUIT AFTER 3-5 SECONDS AND WIRE IT TO THE 3 LEADS GOING TO THE 3 SKILL STOP BUTTONS .. THEN IT WILL ACT LIKE A SLOTMACHINE NOT A TOY ..

[ROCKET]

HERE IS WHAT A AUTO STOP LOOKS LIKE .. JUST A TIMED TRANSISTOR AND 3 DUAL LEADS TO UNPLUG YOUR EXISTING WIRES TO YOUR BUTTONS AND PLUG INTO THIS TINY BOARD AND GROUND IT . THEN AFTER YOU SPIN THE REELS THEY AUTOMATICALLY STOP 1-2-3 WITHIN ABOUT 5 SECONDS ..
THE OTHER PICTURE IS THE OLD YAMASHA I HAVE .IT HAS TO BE 20 YEARS OLD AND A LATER MODEL 6 REEL 3 0VER 3 REELS CALLED FEVER QUEEN THAT HAS STEREO SPEAKERS AND IS ON VOLUME WARP 9 ..

HOPE THIS ANSWERS ALL YOUR QUESTIONS

ROCKET OUT ..
