Thanks for the quick reply!

For the jackpot I swear I have fed enough coins in it to kick over to the jackpot. But maybe not. Ill manually fill it and see if we can get some in the jackpot vault.
I will also check out the coin slides for any thing.

Coin Comparitors and Other Coin acceptors / Re: Coin dropping through IGT PE+
« Last post by jay on Yesterday at 09:47:51 PM »
Lets start with the basics.

1. Do you have a sample coin in the comparator - what denomination is it ?  You may want to swap it for a different coin. Sometimes a coin sitting in a comparator for a long period of time has its metal properties shift just enough that it doesn't register. Happens more commonly with Tokens.

2. What model of comparator do you have ? CC-16D ??


3. Under the comparator is a optic board. Look closely - very closely - there should be a tiny (super tiny) button on this. With the door open press that button and it should put a test credit on the machine. Which you can play with the door open.

Upon further inspection of the photo, that monitor needs someone to look by someone who understands CRTs, even if just a little bit. I noticed there aren’t any screws holding the tube into the frame. Also I do not see a dag wire wrapped around the ear of the frame.

Those two issues can cause all kinds of problems. Plus, if the user is handling the monitor and the tube separates it could be a big mess, broken foot, or worse.

I could wrong but it needs to be checked, there should be 4 screws clearly visible on the front 4 corners and a dag wire that goes across the back of the tube diagonally. Without a dag wire the picture will probably shut down in a few seconds…if you are lucky.

Arby, be very careful if you remove the CRT from the game. Support the tubes weight with a hand on the front of the tube. The face of the tube is very strong.

I had more comments but deleted them until I notify another member who knows a LOT more on this than I do.
First, that's an AWESOME machine!!!
Here's what I surmise...
The jackpot reservoir won't fill until the coin tube is full. Then it kicks to the jackpot and then to the cash box below.
The odd payouts might be a sticky coin slide. Or one just stuck open which might account for random payouts. The slides need to be absolutely oil free - no grease/oil should ever be added.
I'll contact member 63mini and he will have better information!

$510 for a CRT? At first, I thought that was for the entire machine shown. And, after shipping the bill is closer to $600. You may as well spend the money on a drop in LCD.
I've seen MANY CRT's repaired here for minimal costs, with capacitors being the culprits many times.


That is for a drop in LCD. Sorry, I'm a tech and don't have any concept of what machines go for on the open market. I would have no idea who even works on CRTs anymore, but sounds like Chris should be able to help at least.  Apologies if I over stepped.

We need to look at what the LEDs on the comparator are doing. We also need someone familiar with PE+ initialization who can tell us how we know if the device is activated.

As a side note I turn those diverters off by removing a wire, they almost always start buzzing. Be sure to insulate the exposed wire.

Greetings,

I inherited my father's old Mills Novelty Horsehead Quarter Slot Machine after he past. I grew up with this machine and really want to get it working again as it's very dear to me. It did work well once upon a time. It has a few issues. Wheels spin fine. Takes quarters fine but:

  • It will pay out when it shouldn't and doesn't pay when it should. The logic is completely off. Getting any of the combos listed does nothing but it will pay out random amounts when no combo is made.
  • It tosses up a letter for the B O N U S randomly and often. It should only put up a letter of BONUS in order when the first wheel lands on the next letter in sequence. But it just tosses them up nearly every spin but sometimes not.
  • No quarters ever go to the jackpot little window area. It's alway empty now.

Me and my engineer friend have taken it out and watched a few videos and just aren't sure where to start. Do I need to replace springs? Could the icon wheel become misaligned with its corresponding logic disc where the pins go through and know when to pay out? Something needs bending? It seems in pretty good shape other than the mentioned above issues.
