Here...from an earlier thread. There maybe a better one somewhere but darned if I can find it. It's fairly self explanatory. Just be careful with CHIP DIRECTION and don't squish the little legs!

Im kinda screwed for now. a leg broke off when i popped out the sp1271 and I went ahead and put in the clear chip and hit the reset twice after powering up. It didn't do what it was supposed to and I hit the reset button again and its stuck saying 35 on winner paid and 2 on credits and 0 on coins played. It will not respond to any buttons switches or keys. I removed the 3.6v battery and let it sit for about 10 seconds and put it back and tried it again and it powered right up to the exact same thing. UH OH LOL

The last time I heard of this happening was a member bought a Clear chip from some vendor and they sent him the wrong Clear chip or the data on the chip was corrupted. I tried to re-enact your Clear problem but I can't get my clear chip to stop at [35-2] no matter what I do. (Switching socket jumpers, etc)
I know for one thing that the socket jumper doesn't seem to affect the Clear chip even though I'm using a different sized prom.

What my Clear chip does after I press the momentary white Reset button is display the numbers up on Winner Paid window a [0-1],
and the Credits display runs rapidly up to [254],
it seems to pause for a split second then
the Winner Paid window numbers change to [0-2],  the Credits display runs quickly up to [999] and stops.
That's when I know to switch off the power, pull out the MPU, and swap the Clear chip back to the GAME prom.

You didn't seem to indicate that you broke more than one leg off of the SP1271 chip body.
I do wish that you were more careful when removing or installing chips.
Your method of chip removal needs more practice I'm afraid.
Now you have no choice but to post an WTB ad and ask for a new SP chip.
 
Also, check to see though if perhaps the vendor you bought the Clear chip from will replace your Clear chip?
See if they will take it back to inspect the data that was written into it to make sure it's the correct Clear chip data?
It's all that I can suggest right now because I don't know if you have the soldering, and chip programming equipment or electronic skills to repair those chips?

If there's a small downward vertically hanging peice of leg exiting the chip body, you may be able to "McGuyver" a cut and shortened piece of metal paper staple into the socket and let it touch the broken leg of the damaged SP1271 - keeping fingers crossed for some sort of connection.
But the chances of it working are slim without a full soldered joint.
Anyways, Welcome to the club!   Tongue Out I broke legs off too when I started!  Crazy
You learn VERY quickly to be more careful when handling these machine chips!

I have already purchased a new sp1271. They are including a new clear chip as well. My dad has a chip puller that he is going to give me so this doesn't happen again LOL

okay good...the chip puller may  help but there's no subsitute for being careful
and watching the chip physically come out of the socket straight upwards rather than sideways.
I've seen chip pullers slip and grab one end of the chip up resulting in numerous bent legs that then need to be slowly
and carefully straightened out with a pair of needle-nosed pliers.
I know because I've actually worn out one of those $20 chip pullers!
I don't know if it still exists but I've heard of leg straightening parties at the NLG headquarters at one time...  rotflmao

A metal dental pick runs a close 2nd to the bent screw driver though. It's especially useful when a chip is really tight in a socket (the pointed end can wiggle in between the chip and the socket a little easier than a screwdriver tip, since its smaller).
