Hi everyone,

My name is Jenn and I am wondering if anyone would be able to help me.  I am interested in purchasing a slot machine for my husband for his 40th birthday.  I however have absolutely no experience or knowledge of slot machines.  I have found a machine that interests me.  It is a Sigma Free-n-Easy slot machine.  In the ad the seller stated that as of right now there is a low battery code displayed.  Since I have no clue about slot machines I am wondering if anyone would be nice enough to let me know if this is an easy thing to correct especially for someone completely inexperienced?  Thanks so much!!! :-)

If you're handy with a soldering gun, the battery is located at the front right corner of the board.
It's a big Sanyo battery about the size of a quarter.
If you place an ad in the "Classifieds" section of MLG, I'm sure one of our vendors
will spot your ad and try to help you out! yes

If you don't know how to use a soldering gun, then you may have to take out the board
and take it to a shop that deals with slot machines and
someone in there may be able to change out the battery for ya!

Too much! and I am concerned that the EPROM says "Treasure Tunnel" and it's a "Free N' Easy". Usually the "treasure WHEEL" is a free N' Easy...

Definition of "Retirement"= to be able to get back all you contributed into it AND take some of their money too before dropping dead.

You can turn the low battery check off and the game will play fine. Is 500 to much...depends on where you live. Are you paying for shipping?

I live in the Milwaukee area and no I wouldn't be paying for shipping.  I would however be driving about an hour to pick up the unit, if I decide to commit to this machine.  Does anyone know how I would go about getting in contact with someone in my area regarding advice in purchasing/basic knowledge of slot machines?  I have attempted to do a general search on slot machine technicians/repair, but haven't had much luck.  Thanks you all for your knowledge and patience with me and my naiveness as far as slot machine inexperience!!  I definitely appreciate it!!!   wave

Congrats!  If you need any help once you get it - I'll be glad to do what I can - although I don't know anything about Sigma machines.  I can even solder on a new battery if you need help with that Smiley
