Well I hit the jackpot on my recently restored (just to working condition from an older restoration) Jennings Century. I didn't know if the jackpot "pot" would release to the tray, OR if the reserve (the window above) would then drop into the jackpot area on the next pull, but as you can see... success! Of course, you can easily set up mechanical machines to test jackpots/payouts, etc., but I like to just play it until it happens! See PHOTOS first, then watch video.
I am a extreme novice when it comes to slot machines so please bear with me as I trash the slot world language. I have a bunch of issues but I will fix them one by one.
The issue I am tackling now is when I insert a coin (or manually flick the switch) it registers the first coin just fine. Its the subsequent coins that are not registering. I can go up in the top and manually push the solenoid and the payout lights will appear as you would expect it would if another coin was dropped.
What triggers that solenoid or is there something else I should be looking at?
1. Please post UPRIGHT photos. I fixed the main one. We've told you how to do this in the past. 2. There is no such machine as Bally "Eserie." Are you referring to the Bally E series? Thank you and good luck fixing the machine.
