At this point I would recommend sending the backplane and MPU board to our shop but that is up to you.

Badbaud - Can you give us (members) some more info on your shop (I.e. Name, location, website, services offered, etc)??

That's always an option, but im kinda wanting to learn more on these..so somebody said to clear it and reset it..anybody else agree or disagree..ill buy the chips and try that if one or more of the experts agrees..I also wanted to let you guys know that when this first happened, I told an e/m buddy about it and he sent me a backplane, cpu, and another CC ..I only have the game and reel chips that came with the machine, but swapping those and the new battery makes no difference..same results..if theres anything else you think I should try, let me know and thank you all again for the help..i was new to the old forum when it changed and must admit I wasn't sure I was going to like the new format..well I do, and its still the best place to share info, learn, and sometimes help someone greener than me.I took this machine in on a trade..someone left my house with a working 809..im ok putting some cash into this one, so my dad can play it..hes getting too weak to pull the handles on my e/m's and it would be cool to load the hopper and credits so all he had to do was push the buttons

Buzz · « **Reply #43 on:** May 02, 2014, 01:52:25 PM »

Jim I hate to give you bad news but using a SP809 you can not add extra credits. The machine will only except the number of coins for the game. Your machine doesn't have a BV, BUT there is a way. Change the SP809 to a SP1137 Montana credits and you can drop in all the coins you want to drop. The first 3 go to game play and the rest will go to credits.

Boy did I ever F*** this post up !! The 809 was a Bally and not a SP chip. But a SP809 is a type 0, 1, 4, 5. Your still going to need a SP1137 to add credits and I think it is the only SP chip that will do that.
A 1137 is a type 0, 1, 4, 5, 12, 14. Your Red white & Blue needs a type 0

PM me your address and I will send you a 1137 along with a clear chip. You don't have a BV so a set chip is not needed.

at this point : I would get the board that you were able to get to a 61, and install that board and check the three things I asked you to check. (reels stiff, 6.3vac, 10/12 vdc on the LED board)

Now see if the self test button does anything, do you get any displays?

Jim

jim k-falls · « **Reply #45 on:** May 02, 2014, 05:58:42 PM »

Buzz, now that was fu.,ing funny..and Jim I did all that last night and reported that I still had no display..reels are tight and I have 6.2 v on the trace that goes to the mini lamps # 86..and I believe I got 11v at the display board..couldn't find the cap you mentioned but I took the display off and checked at the power source..im assuming your talking about a capacitor? I think theres one on my comparitor behind the cover..any way I just got off work and I need to fix some dinner then ill be back to do any thing you ask..1 more dumb question...that little bushing/spacer that lines up the cpu to the backplane..ill just call it the alignment dowel ..how tall should that be? I was thinking of trying to seat the mpu without it..seems like my cpu isn't going all the way down..i have calipers.there was a star washer then the bushing, then a long round head screw..i took the washer out and tried that..

Badbaud - Can you give us (members) some more info on your shop (I.e. Name, location, website, services offered, etc)??

Vegas area shop ran by two old pharts trying to spend some time away from their retired wives.

Many of the local, back of the truck, service guys use us to fix their stuff.

Larry spent over 10 years working for Bally and I spent 6 years in the design and development shop working for Fortune Coin which later became Sircoma then IGT. When they all moved to Reno I ran a slot shop in a casino in Laughlin for 10 years.

Larry is good at EM rebuilds while I work on anything electronic.

The shop is two floors stacked with parts and testers for almost every kind of machine.

Don't even need my cane to get around the shop as there is always something close to grab onto.

If we don't have a tester I usually design one.

Larry was smart and over the years collected boxes of boards and parts for many different machines.

He is a A+ hoarder.

We both agree we will keep at it until one of us drops dead.

Larry is there 7 days a week, I work when I don't have a doctors appointment.

His number is 702-363-9998, he doesn't own a cell phone or answer emails on the website his daughter set up years ago.

We work on most of the older machines like Fortune 1, 2 ,S+, S slot, PE, PE+, S2000, bally 5000, 5500, 6000, V5500, 3 card racks, Game Makers, and some Game Kings. Also monitors, coin comparators and bill validators.

We don't buy or sell machines unless we need one or want to get rid of one we have rebuilt.

We have a loyal group of customers that find us via word of mouth. We don't advertise on Craigs list
or papers and don't buy or sell on E-Bay.

We have worked on some boards for some casinos back east and have customers that come to Vegas for a short vacation and drop off their machine for a fix and rebuild.

I am leaving my website up but am slowly changing it over to a info site for slot and video documents.
www.aldor.net is where I sold my boards for neon and incandescent signs since 1987.

When I retired I turned off my business license and work under Larrys to do strictly gaming repairs.

Larry is very good at talking customers into how to fix their machine over the phone and he doesn't charge for that service.

I rechecked everything and here we go..reels are tight, 6.1v at the 25 cent light..other traces nothing(insert coin and coin accepted)..I touched what appears to be the solder of a capacitor on the back of display and I got 21.2volts..crappy pic, but its the bottom two and it looks like a capacitor to me..

jim k-falls · « **Reply #48 on:** May 02, 2014, 07:32:45 PM »

I just realized how old I am..i lived in Bullhead and worked in Laughlin when there were only 2 casinos..1976-1978 I use to sneek into the Riverside and The Nevada Club and play the Slots until security recognized me ..it was usually fun for 10-20 mins and a free beer..i think the Crystal Palace was being built when I left..How many casinos does it have now?

Jim, where are you at? location.
At this point I'm ready to send you a motherboard and a MPU to see if you can get this thing going.
If it works, just send a donation to NLG

Jim · « **Reply #50 on:** May 02, 2014, 07:52:31 PM »

the spacer you asked about is a guide to make sure the cpu aligns with the two plugs. it's possible that if this is wrong it could keep the cpu from mating up with the motherboard.

Jim

Buzz · « **Reply #51 on:** May 02, 2014, 08:21:52 PM »

I don't know why we haven't ask for him to check the pins from the MPU to the Mother Board. That would keep the board from going all the way down.

Wowowowowowowowowow!!! You guys are a hidden GEM!!! Although we don't know HOW to find you, I will hold ON to the Phone number, that's for SURE!!!

Woohoo, I a, So glad I asked!!! Thank you for sharing!!!

Roz Unless they have changed you can throw that phone number away because when you call it they ain't gonna ansewer the phone.

CVslots · « **Reply #54 on:** May 02, 2014, 09:26:42 PM »

Thanks for raining on that parade Buzz...,I can always count on you!!! Dammit, really? They are losing business from here, but whatever....maybe they are busy enough.

Buzz · « **Reply #55 on:** May 02, 2014, 09:42:21 PM »

Roz I just tell it the way I see it. Year or so back they needed a IDOJ sound simm, change that to a IDOJ simm. I must have called them a half dozen times with no ansewer. I think I was going to make two bucks on the sale and spend 3 bucks on blood pressure pills. If I depended on slot sales to eat, I would be a skinny old bastard by now.

Badbaud · « **Reply #56 on:** May 03, 2014, 02:55:45 AM »

It wasn't you. The customer said she had sold the machine and the new owner didn't mind the sound it came with.

You aren't the only one that didn't get a call back, someone hijacked our shop line and we could call out but no calls came in.

It took the phone Co. almost 3 weeks to figure out what the problem was.

Larry won't do PayPal or credit card purchases anyways.
