![]() ![]() This is removed by pulling/pushing in an upward direction. Remove the screw and you can see a black lug that is held in place in a slot. Then also the bracket that holds the coin mech is held in place with one screw, the screw that allows the locking catch to hold the coin mech in place. There should be 4 locating lugs to hold the coin mech in position. The coin mech is then removed by pulling to the right then in an upwards direction. The coin mech is easily removed, usually/should be held in by a movable locking tab/catch at the top that loops over a locating lug. Hey don't sell yourself short, ask heaps of questions and surely someone on here will have the answer, in the meantime you are learning new skills and saving some coin.Īs mentioned the coin lock out coil is energised to allow the coin to go the path of the micro switch or when not energised the coin will go the path to the refund. Without it if someone is so stupid to put a coin in when the machine is turned off, they loose it. All that coil does is allow the coin to reject if someone puts a coin in when the machine is turned off, See the pointy end closest to his finger?īend it in about 3mm so it holds the plate fully in all the time. See the metal bent piece of metal between his finger and the spring. If the coin goes through and a credit is registered, you have found your problem.Ĭheck the has the two wires attached to it again in the picture If you had no noise at solenoid 14 try pushing in the plate exactly like this clown is doing in the picture and put a coin through now. Put the machine into solenoid test and watch the numbers as each coil is fired one at a time.Ĭheck to see if there is a noise from the front door at number 14.14 is the coin lockout. If you see nothing inside, (it should be pretty clean), It is possibly the coin lockout. Grab this part and open it as far as it can go and look inside the now exposed part for crap inside the mechs. ![]() Push the coin reject button and watch from the back of the door the part of the coin mechs that open slightly. Ow so the switches are working now but the coin mechs aren't reliably excepting coins? Don't go to a lot of trouble though Rich as I am clearly aware that I need the machine looked at by someone with greater knowledge than me (and this might be not too far away) for this and a few other issues - just wanted to get a head start and learn as much as I can. Thanks again for taking time out of your day to help out, much appreciated. Perhaps the stuck mechanism is because of the Susan B Anthony coin that earlier Bally's accepted? The other one that drops through though, unsure? I can, as mentioned, gently pull down the wire mechanism on the bottom of the coin mechanism and that registers credits. The left one gets stuck and with a gentle shake comes loose to the refund hole. The right coin slot seems to go through the coin mechanism but just drops straight to the refund hole. In regards to the coin mech - I have 2 coin slots - 1 right and 1 left (the middle one has a mechanism behind but no coin slot). I also fiddled with the other settings in the early days but haven't touched for a long time - settings seem fine and probably just more a personal preference I guess. I am aware of the test switch and have used it over the years to hopefully find some answers - I used to always get stuck switch errors but now receive none - which doesn't quite reflect game play. Thanks Rich for the continued support and assistance. Your book keeping/test function switch is on the inside of the front door, small red button/switch on a bracket in the top middle, SW33 is on the MPU and resets readings to zero, a round narrow red push button. Once you know the state of your microswitches, if they work, then they go through the plug just inside the door to the left then up to the MPU A4, J3. This can be tricky on your own unless you have alligator clips fitted to your meter leads. If you have a multimeter handy put the two probes onto each lug on the micro, meter set on continuity/buzz/sound, activate wire lever, closing the switch and listen for a sound. You have lights behind the coin slots? Coin Lockout pulls in? You can push in the locking strip on the individual pins and remove the pin and retension it for ensured connection, remembering to pull out the locking tab before refitting the pin so as to lock it in place again, A4 J3, pins 9, 10 & 11 are for the coin micros.ĭoes your game start pushing the credit button? They may look intact but can be broken and may work intermittently. Check A4 (MPU) J3 edge connector, when fitted 3,2 or 1 coin mech switches all go to/through this edge connector, check header pins for dry solder joints on the rear of the MPU and look to see if the pins in edge connector are intact. ![]()
