key chip access failure

[jstraa]

Hi,

I'm trying to install a Progressive display in my S2000 but I get an error when I've inserted the game eprom again
and can't access the menu's. The error message is "key chip access failure". Could this be because there are still
credits on the machine?

jstraa, you are correct. If there are credits on the machine you will not be able to change any of the key chip options and you will get the key chip access failure message.

I answered my own question, it was the credits that were on.
However now I can't get in the 7.3.3 setup any ideas?
I've installed super stars spin ...

After the auto netplex config it finds the display so I guess that's a good thing

Are you certain that game supports progressive?  Some don't.  The PAR sheet will confirm it.

Hi Jeff,
Damn didn't check it's an super stars spin? Can you tell me? OR can you tell me where to find the PAR sheet?

I now have the same problem on a S-2000,"key chip access failure". Setting up my progressive on my
SB100027 Tabasco. No credits, the two amber lights light up when I install the key chip. I have
used a 17 and a 31. Both do not work. I did try to do this with credits on the machine until
it   me. But cleared the credits and it still neither one will not work. I have used the key chips at lease
20 times prior to this time. I tried the 17 in another machine and got the same results.

Does the mean my key chips have play out?
