Ok I'll take a close look at the backplane board and let you know if I see anything.  Also I'll try to post a video or sound clip of the noise.  This will be my last post untill sunday evening because I'm going to Atlantic City this weekend. Ok dabunker and jdkmunch On that note I been to Atantic City since I had this problem and I listened every close to multiple Bally S6000 machines and none of them make the noise mine is making so I can assure you the problem is real.
So please hang in there I need all the help I can get. Wish me luck this weekend. Thanks to all.    Mike

It is possible to wiggle the harness while the reels are spinning during actual "game" mode...
but he would have to make a bypass harness for the door optics to get his hand in there with the door open...

I have not worked with Bally's - but if it was on my IGT, I would just remove the reel glass itself - 4 screws...

I noted that daddy has gone beyond this test, but for future reference, Bally 6000s don't have door optics. One only has to pull out the white cherry switch to play the machine in normal "closed door" mode with the door open. No manipulation of glass or belly is necessary.
David,
   You must be thinking of S5500 machines, the S6000 does have optics.

Thanks and see you soon.....

I should mention that when I want to fool a S6000 to think the door is closed, I hang my flourescent trouble light beside the receiver optics on the cabinet, it then thinks it's closed.

Thanks,
Wayne

Another case of CRS. I did/do not remember seeing optics on Buzz' S6000s. Getting older sucks. knockout

Jeesh! Sounds like elephant blowing it's trunk!
But I'll tell you what...mine sounds exactly the same...
Yours is a touch louder because they're spinning a little faster than mine?
Play both videos over and over and compare...
not too much difference except I had some music playing in the background and
yours has 4 reels!  yummy

Uh,...when copying and pasting from youtube...
just paste the part between the "  " marks ( from  http to 5kY0 ) ,
so you post up one single screen instead of two!

I guess  I need to wait on a69mopar for a verdict.  Being I was just in atlantic city this weekend and listened to many S6000's I can tell you That noise IS NOT the norm.  Mike
Thanks for the Youtube posting tip.

I wonder if it's a bit quieter with the door closed?
I took the video with the door wide open and fairly close up.
Plus, the insulation/rubber around the door may be worn out or loose too.
That rubber acts as a sound barrier somewhat...
Plus, our machines seem a lot louder at home where it's not as noisy as a full-blown casino floor.

Its noisy even with the door shut.  And what you say about home vs a casino is true, but I went as far as putting my ear next to the reel glass to get a good listen.   Mike

I have to agree with Stayout,  I had a 5500 and it sounded exactly like that.  I have a 6000 with 3 reels and it's much quieter but it still has that same sound.    I'm getting a 4 reel kit.  I'll post the sound it makes as soon as I get it.   It's annoying as all hell I know.  When I got my 5500 it drove me nuts.  I wound up talking to Slots4Home and he sold me new reels that were much quieter.

Ok, but why the last spinning reel making the noise.  It may be a common problem, but still a problem.  Mike

PS. Stayout mention  insulation/rubber around the door, but I don't have  insulation/rubber around my door??

You said you swapped all reels and have the same result.  I think they all are making the exact same sound and it just appears that the last reel is making the noise.    I can hear from the video that the sound seems a little lower as each reel stops.

NO, belive me there not making the same noise.  There a test  that spins and stops all the reels simultaneously  that I have done. And it clear its the 4th reel making the noise.  Mike

Mike,
  Your machine is nowhere as loud as I expected,  I know that 4 reel machines are noisier and I don't have any shopped currently for comparison, but if you have tape between the basket and strips, it shouldn't be as noisy as it is currently.  Bunker, your machine is a little noisy, I'd do the things that we said in the post and it should be better.  And both should make sure your reel strips are tight before you tape them (scotch permanent 2 way, or reel strip tape).  I'm thinking "power issue" on this.  I'll take a video of some that are quieter, but they will be 3 reel machines, which are quiter.

Thanks,
Wayne

On the left lower corner of the backplane board there are voltage probe points that are clearly marked what voltage they should be.  Check them with your meter and report back.  you can ground to the p.s.

Have a good night,
