Well,
First of all hello and thanks for allowing me to join. A little about how I got here. My neighbor had this machine, wife is having a yard sale and well it â€œHad to goâ€. Iâ€™m a single guy starting my â€œMan ~~Cave~~ Houseâ€ took it. He said he had it for a year or so said it had run. Well I now have it and am going to try to get it working again.
About me. I have no experience with these machines. Iâ€™m less than a laymen. Itâ€™s going to be â€This thingâ€ or it looks like_____. So please be nice while I get my feet wet.
Anyone want to help a guy out?
Brett

Welcome to NLG Brett.

There is lots of help here, you will need to describe any problems as best you can or post photos showing what you will be asking about, otherwise it is much harder for anyone to make accurate suggestions to fix the problem. I'd start by posting a photo of your machine so we know exactly what you have. Show a clear photo of the outside, then open the main door and post a photo or two of the inside of the machine. Once we know what model machine you have then your questions can be posted in the specific part of the website for that machine, that way your questions will get the largest amount of attention.

The good news is that most slot machines were built rugged, they have to stand up to people playing and sometimes banging on them 24/7 while in the casino. So if it worked not long ago there may not be too much you have to do to get it working again.

Now here is what I have:
Black & White Double Jackpot
Mdl # S63M3CT10
Manufactured 5/97
When you turn it on this is what happens
Lower cabinet lights up but not the light behind the payout glass.
The coin comparator green light does not light.
The circuit board just below that has a yellow light it is on.
The metal box just below the wheels the reset red light keeps blinking. (I donâ€™t have a key to open this area).
The coin hopper thing at the bottom keeps making a click click noise. There are two little push buttons on the left side also on the left side there is a red and green light, these are both blinking.
I do not have any keys for this machine. The front right side lock is missing. I donâ€™t have one to get into the metal box with the blinking red reset light. I donâ€™t have a key for the key switch on the right side, high and towards the back.

I'll post some pic's tonight

Do you see any numbers on the displays on the front glass? You might have to have the door closed to see codes? It could be as simple as your battery's dead to a bad power supply or any thing in between, but we should be able to help you get it working again..

Brett... You will want to start a new topic under Bally Slots 5500/6000.. You will get more help that way.. Give all this information and pictures there..

Good luck, Gary

Hi Everyone and all members of NLG.
I've landed on this forum many times in my GOOGLE search for slot machine parts. So tonight I took the time to sign-up.
I've been working in the slot industry for the best part of my life. Not at a any casino, but as a supplier of game artwork to casinos and the major manufacturers, such as IGT, Aristocrat, Universal (Aruze), WMS etc.
As from beginning 2017 I became involved in the sourcing of slot parts, new and refurbished for our casino clients.
I'm here to learn from all you guys & gals about ad boards, power supplies, monitors, card readers etc etc.
I hope to make a positive contribution to the forum.
I've read the T&C's and ask your help & patience to use this forum correctly.
If I need some shouting at, please do so .. OUT LOUD (I don't mind)
Best to all
Ant

Welcome to New Life Games. You will find us for most parts pretty layed back, but on occasion we do bark a little bit at each other. Glad to have you here.

slotjunk511 · « **Reply #291 on:** March 14, 2018, 07:37:43 PM »

Thank you for the warm welcome.
I've read through a bunch of topics. I see the members are selling sofware on here. That would be specific to certain jurisdictions I suppose?
Can I pm you about it?
Tks - Ant

Amechanic · « **Reply #292 on:** March 14, 2018, 07:57:26 PM »

I won't be much help with new software. I tend to lean towards older Bally and IGT Games. There are venders around the country here that should be able to help you. Keep you eye on the classified section too.

Glad to see you here, Welcome Aboard!

When you say you've been involved in game artwork for slot machines I take that to mean the design and manufacture of the upper, lower and reel glass? If so that's an interesting line of work.

On some slot machines the jurisdiction of the software is coded into the software itself. On other machines there is a separate jurisdiction control chip that is not part of the game software. So it varies. If you own a machine and it is setup for a particular jurisdiction that can usually be changed if needed.

Hello everyone! I am a new member with an IGT S+ Double Diamond Deluex I enjoy playing and tinkering with. I plan to add a bell and upgrade the bill validator. The forums have already been a great source of info. Glad I joined!
