Edit: This was a wiring issue at the hopper beau plug. Solved.Now that I have my
months-long problem with the Credit Register solved, I now have a problem with underpays on larger payouts on my 891-20.
When I first acquired the machine and before I added the Credit Register, all payouts were working correctly. I probably caused this problem somewhere along the line.
Results are based on testing with one coin, and results were identical in both right-to-left and left-to-right payouts.
All smaller pays (<200 coins) pay correctly.All pays of 200 coins or more are significantly short, in some cases, by a factor of ten or more. (example: 200 coin payout pays 20)
Based on other threads I've seen, I'm guessing that this is a hopper issue, but I don't see anything amiss at a casual glance.
I did recently have to replace the male beau plug on the hopper, but I've double-checked for:
1. Correct wires to pins
2. No broken wires
3. No pin-to-pin shorts
...and didn't seen any problems there.
So, it's likely something else on the hopper that's out of adjustment or disconnected.
Suggestions?
