Title: What do I need to fix these two Bally machines?
Post by: mach on February 26, 2017, 07:15:23 PM

Have a Bally 6000 with an 8100 code.  Which batteries and / or clear chips do I need?


Also this Cinevision having NVRAM 2 low error?


Where can I get the parts to fix these? 


And more importantly what is the correct process to fix?  Real NOOB.  :)


Thanks

6000  will need a AA 3.6V Lithium and a set of clear chips. The Cinevision may be similar to an Alpha? Not sure some others will have to chime in here. But if similar you have 2 Coin cell sized batteries on the MPU and one on the MB. You will need a proper clear card for your machine. Need your OS card info. You will need your programming instructions after the clears for both machines.

There are 2 coin cell batteries on the MPU box.  You should replace them both.  Depending on your MPU type, but based on game shown, you will probably need CR2032's.  There's also a 3rd battery on the top of the backplane, you might as well replace that one as well.

I presume those are for the Cinevision?  Would these be the same thing https://www.walmart.com/ip/Energizer-Elect-2032-2/9871188?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=1330&adid=22222222227016968788&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=c&wl3=51816925031&wl4=pla-83219166671&wl5=9003810&wl6=&wl7=&wl8=&wl9=pla&wl10=100362769&wl11=online&wl12=9871188&wl13=&veh=sem (https://www.walmart.com/ip/Energizer-Elect-2032-2/9871188?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=1330&adid=22222222227016968788&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=c&wl3=51816925031&wl4=pla-83219166671&wl5=9003810&wl6=&wl7=&wl8=&wl9=pla&wl10=100362769&wl11=online&wl12=9871188&wl13=&veh=sem)

Where can I acquire the clear chips for these?

Yes, those are correct.  I would pull out the mpu and look to make sure it is the correct battery as there is another mpu type that uses different batteries, though your machine is unlikely to have it.  But just check, the other type of mpu has the batteries mounted vertically and they are 2477n type batteries.

Remove both of the CF cards from the Cinevision and post a pic of them. Then the members can help  with the proper clear card you need. Then you can post in the classifieds  a WTB ad for clear chips for the 6000 and clear card for the Cinevision.
