I would check your door optics.  Use a digital camera or a camera phone and look at the little emitter, it should be pulsing at a rapid rate when viewed through the digital camera viewfinder or your smartphone.  With machine powered on, open the door and look at the door optics as described above and then report back what you see.

Do you have any codes in the winner paid window, i.e. 12, 3300, etc? Do you have any numbers in the display at all? When you close the door, do the digits go out on the display and then reappear after a few seconds or do they stay on after closing the door? Are the 2 wires inside of the bill validator cash box door tied together? Is there an optic in the belly door that may be open and not closing properly or tied together?

To Lemans 1969: there are no codes showing in the winner paid box. after cycling the power and shutting the door the credits window shows a 0 for a moment then goes out. the coins played shows a flashing 0. I found the two wires in the cash box and checked the connection  [separated the wires then installed a new wire nut] After cycling the power I now have the bill validator making its running sound after the power is turned on. the BV then shows a bright blue light in the very center of the bottom row of icons. It is on for just a second then the insert bills starts fading from the outside in. it is fading in green. at the same time this is occurring the credit box displayed a 0 for just a moment then goes out. the coins played begins to flash a 0. neither the BV or the coin acceptor will accept anything. Also the green light is off. on the back of coin slot. once again thank you for the much needed help

The green light on the coin comparator is not going to light up when the door is open. That is normal on the S+machine. It sounds like the machine is ready for play though. Have you checked your limits to make sure they are set up? Is your denomination also set up? Not sure which game eprom you have in the machine, but open the door and push the small white self test button normally located next to the on/off switch and you will go into your menu. Then push the self test button until you get a number 6 in the coins played display. The number in the winner paid is your denomination. If there is no denomination set, then push the spin reel button to change the denomination of the machine. Then once you have the denomination in place, push the bet max button to the far right to hold it in memory and push the self test button again. This will change the coins played to a 7 and you  will have a number in the winner paid again. Normally, depending on what game chip you have, this will be your credit limit. Make sure it's as high as it will go. You can change it by pushing the spin reel button to increment the digit and turning the jackpot reset key will change to the next digit so that you can increase it also. Once you have the new value in place, push the bet max button again to hold it and then push the self test button again to go the next limit value. On most game eproms, the second value under 7 will appear in the credits window and this will be your bill validator limit. Make sure it's at it's highest also. Then hold it into place by pushing the bet max button. If your denomination is not set or your limits are too low, it will not take a bill in. Does the bv unit even attempt to pull it in? If not, you may have a weak power supply to your WBA unit also. it's the metal box attached to the left hand side of the bv unit. Hope this helps, April
