I believe there are 3 coils mounted on the drop down light board or the back of the cabinet.
Hopefully the labels are still attached.
If I remember correctly, one of the coils will impulse for every coin.
Causing the odds unit to advance.
These coils/switches can be manually operated for testing.

Also, check the actual step up unit that might be labeled odds unit.
Look for burnt coils, broken or detached wires, contacts out of adjustment, and missing springs.
This unit can also be manually operated. Check for smooth operation and a swift return.

Like Tilt said - NO settings can cause a low battery.  Replace MPU or send it to Lookes to be repaired.

Would it all be possible that somewhere in the settings which by the way is comes up after I do the reset maybe hold the answer to this low battery issue.

Or is the only answer in the main board?

The schematic,  what is the issue with that? Remember your BV worked till you received a different MPU? Maybe the dipswitch settings are not set properly to enable the BV.

Well, I don't know anything about the dip switches, I thought Alan would have set it up before I received it.

The wiring was screwed up,  it was cut and spliced before I acquired it, I have been trying to straighten it out, lengthen the wires, by using the same color wires.

Hi all
Had a tiki torch that a friend on here was helping me do a clear and set because the bill validation was not working
We did the clear and set .. but upon loading one of the times, the game came up but the reels were blank.. we never got to finish the set up.. I'm not sure if the problemnis from the clear/set, or unrelated.. any ideas?
Thanks
Al
