uh oh...bad news...
You better start shopping around for a new MPU board...
The reel resistors are going...pack of five resistors down on the bottom right of the board.
It's either that or something more serious...
I think Forrhouse bought the MPU test machine that may be able to diagnose the boards' problems.
Try to PM him with your board problem...maybe you can send it out to him for a repair?
Time for a good spare MPU board....
Anyone else see anything I don't?  This one's a job for Cactus Jack???

Or the reel driver.  MPU boards are cheap enough nowadays.  I'd say get a couple while the getting is good.  These will dry up eventually.

You'd better verify that cash door switch and the adjustment of the main door optics. Multiple reel codes are usually the result of the MPU seeing a door open while the reels are spinning (don't ask me how I know... Duh!).

In short, bypass the cash door switch and verify the alignment of the door optics. Your previous posts state you checked the door optic emitter was flashing, but that's only half of the check. The optics have to be aligned correctly, also.

Did it work before? I had a similar issue and it turned out that when I did a game change, my game chip was not fast enough for my 16M board. I put in a faster chip and my 4x errors went away.

Yes, bypass the cash door switch. If you really feel you need to keep it functioning, then tape it down temporarily, then align the door optics.

I found that the cash can switch was broken and fix it with a piece of pink ribbon from my daughter hair!!

THANKS!!! Hail
