This is where the fingers are. Are you saying the second picture, that needs to be open? The nickel still drops right through to the change tray. It will not accept any nickels, still. I was saying thank you for the time and help people are giving me.

I took two pictures of a hopper I just serviced. The solenoid that resets the spiral cam back to recovery is located behind the hopers wiper board. See pic with orange circle. I reach in with my finger or a thin screw driver between these two contacts below the jackpot relay, see yellow circle.

You really need to sit down and read the service manual. Itâ€™s the only way your going to understand how the machines work and where thing are located. Things need to be cleaned and adjusted. Cabinet and hopper and odds units beau plugs must be cleaned of tarnish and fully seated together to operate. Every manual I own has a trouble shooting section in them too.

I have a few trouble shooting guides too. verify 50 volt power, coin lockout coil defective, dsashpot switch open-pull dashpot arm forward, reel mechanism adjustments, coin acceptor dirty or needs adjusting, refer to schematic for inter,mediate circuitry, defective coin switch, missing or wrong coin shim in coin switch area, the rocker arm in the coin rejector fell off, clean contact on the payout relay.

So your fingers are in the wrong position either it's not reset to correct position or as Hans said it's try to pay a 100 win whatever you need to push that solenoid in behind the payout card then we can take it from there

I had miss spoke in my previous post and I've corrected it.. I said the game will not accept coins till the spiral cam is reset, that's not correct.. It will accept a coin/coins when the spiral cams advanced. As soon as you spin the reels and the "C" contact on the reels closes, then your solenoid should fire and return the spiral cam to zero.. Now the game is ready for its next payout because the zero switch is now closed...

So how do I know what number the fingers are on? I tried what you told me and still nothing, I pushed the solenoid in and it did not do anything, nickel still falls threw. tripped the coin switch so i could handle reels spun.

Did you mention something about a coin stuck inside the coin identifier/ coin mechanism?

Your picture is now showing your spiral cam in the reset position. Is your odds unit plugged all the way in?

The photo in post #225 looks about right.

I believe that it is the "B" switch closes and resets the spiral cam back to 6 o'clock position and also turns off the winner paid light.

Central Valley Slots had tips and info for slot owners, and they said something about don't take the coin out of the coin coparator. So i was asking a question, because I don't know. If you don't know, you should ask questions, right?

No coins are stuck, i was just asking if this was true or not.

Yes but you do not have a coin comparitor

Amechanic · « **Reply #232 on:** November 01, 2018, 12:54:23 AM »

No he has a mechanical coin mech. He needs to be consintrating on the machines switches, line the coin switch on the reel, beau plugs and relay contacts in the top units feature unit. My moneys on the problems with the top units beau plug or relay contacts. Itâ€™s so hard to trouble shoot a machine with out being able to see what working. Thatâ€™s where extension cables come in so handy.

We need to see what's happening from the start
Push in all solenoids in the top compartment and on the hopper no worries if nothing happens slide hopper back in power up and insert coin without going off on a tangent
What happened?
Did it accept a coin? Yes or no

Tat2Dave · « **Reply #234 on:** November 01, 2018, 10:44:17 PM »

No it doesn't accept any nickels, they go right through to the change tray.

mark the spark · « **Reply #235 on:** November 01, 2018, 11:21:30 PM »

1 does it work if you manually flick the switch
2 is the lockout coil energised remove coin mech you can feel if it's energised
3

Tat2Dave · « **Reply #236 on:** November 02, 2018, 05:14:48 PM »

Yes i can flick the coin switch 1 time and pull the handle. The lockout coil is energized. If I flick the coin switch it wont advance past first coin

From what I see, you coin problem is with your coin mech.. I wouldnâ€™t worry about that at this point. If this were my machine, I would be servicing the top odds unit. Sounds like your step up unit has dirty or a bad connection. One thing I donâ€™t think thatâ€™s been check are the contacts on the handle. When the handle is released, there is a group of contacts that close. If those are dirty or out of adjustment, that will affect your next coin.
