Title: 1994 Sigma Double Jokers wild
Post by: Jimise on July 13, 2014, 08:46:21 PM

A friend of mine just picked up this Sigma machine today.
It turns on just fine, display lights up, but it will not accept any bills or coins, the coins just get stuck.
It looks like to me something is missing near the coin comparator, and I don't have anything to compare to.
The cherry switch works fine, and the monitor shows that the door is closed/open.
If anyone is familiar with these machine, I would appreciate the help! 
Thanks everyone!

I have worked on a couple of the Sigma machines.. Where are the coins getting stuck? Is the coin deflector under the optics energized to make the coins go into the hopper. Have you tried removing the screw holding the optic in place and cleaning it. I have seen them listed at Rudy's before. They are not interchangeable. One has an N on it, but I don't remember what the second one had for a letter.
