Hi,
I bought a extra line continental a few weeks ago. It had a few issues, but most have been solved.
This machine was somewhere in his lifetime converted to a 917-1 with hopper payout. They also closed one of the melon slots by welding in a piece of metal.
The problem that i have with it is that the odds-motor, odds-follower and line-unit are running after a spin. This is normal for a payout, but it does this almost always if there is no win.
This continues and the problem sometimes goes away after a normal payout and starts again after the next payout.
During this problem when i add more than one coin the odds-follower steps up after inserting a coin. The odds-unit is working as it should.
I have a schematic of the 917.
Does anyone have the schematic for a 917-1 ?
I want to know what the correct wiring should be for the hopper.
I traced the wiring and these are the modifications they did :
- removed the register counter unit.
- disconnected CAM#1 switch that connects to the odds-follower reset coil. This coil now only activates with the reel B-2 switch.
- connected NC-CAM#1 switch in series with the Pay detect trip relais-switch that goes to the Pay-relais from the hopper.
- connected a NC-contact from the hopper payout-relais in series with the odds-motor.
- both contacts from CAM#6 removed. Wiring of 1 contact is disconnected and wiring of the other is connected to the contact from CAM#9 (P.O.C. reset)
Please advise how to solve this problem. Schematics for a 917-1 would be most helpful.
Best regards,
Maurice
