Post a pic, model # doesn't do much. One with the main door open will help too.

Nice pics! That is an S+. Someone here should have whatever you need to get it up and running. What does it display when turned on? Any codes?

sixcardmark · « **Reply #5 on:** April 10, 2021, 04:05:51 PM »

First off it is missing a coin to compare to in the coin comparitor, it also is not plugged in.

craig333 · « **Reply #6 on:** April 10, 2021, 04:16:21 PM »

Thanks
Yes I took the coin out. The power plug is missing. I have ordered Harness CC-16 Coin Comparitor Harness IGT S Plus PE I need to plug it in, As the plug end will not plug in to the coin comparitor. That is 1st thing I need to fix. And have a code for no coins. Need to get a light for the top front. I can pick that up at work.

I have no codes right now, still waiting for the wiring to come in to fix the coin comparitor, So wanted to get the lights working, top wire I had to fix a broken wire, bought two LED lights put them in top and bottom. They both came on, but seem to be a bit bright for my liking. then I smelt like it was getting hot and burning, the lights were getting to hot, turned off and removed them, no wiring was burnt, I put in two fluorescent and top one would nt come on right with out moving it around almost to the point of removing it. and the bottom one will not come on at all.
Thinking I might need a new ballast? If so How would I find one of them for a IGT S plus?

It probably just needs a new starter, easy to find at the hardware store. Each of the 3 fluor tubes has it's own ballast and starter.

Beware - some of those LED tubes that do run with existing ballasts need to have the starter removed, and some are just plain cheap junk.

As a bit of troubleshooting - If you have one florescent working you can move the tube to the other positions to see if its working.
You can also move the starter. They are just a simple push in and twist to the other positions.
Home Depot carries these.

On the belly door, it looks like a piece of white paper installed in there?
That's a fire hazard!
Get the right piece of glass please!

So if i'm reading this right the print should be printed on the glass? Where can I find that?

craig333 · « **Reply #12 on:** April 14, 2021, 03:02:48 AM »

I will troubleshoot the lights and see what I come up with

jay · « **Reply #13 on:** April 14, 2021, 08:15:34 AM »

Contact the vendors on our home page, and check Ebay - The belly glass between a 9", 16" and Round top are all the same, but obviously the top glass is different.
You can also get Generic glass that says 25C or even the name of a Casino. Slant tops have no belly glass so thats not an issue....

Just looking at the pictures someone must have cracked the the top 9" glass and remove the the decal form the glass or put it on a printer and made a copy of it, and that is what is displayed in the belly .

you coin comparitor appears to have something keeping the coin holding slot open. that part, with no coin installed should be resting to the far left.

I would worry about getting the lights working, I would concentrate on getting the machine working first!, then worry about the lights.

even with out that cable hooked up, you should be getting something on the displays to indicate that the processor is running or doing anything.

did you inspect the board, fuses, etc.

The belly has glass in it, with printed thick paper behind it.
Now the coin comparitor had a coin in it when I got it. I did not know what it was or did when I 1st got it. I pushed it over and took the coin out, and it will not slip back over, it is missing the wire for the coin comparitor "witch I have ordered, Ill have it Fri" Hoping when the coin comparitor gets power it will slid back,
I have not inspect the board. I do have some wire not hooked up. but the Bill thinging is missing to,, guess that is what the extra wire for for.

I'm going to try two new starters, I have to look up what size I need as it has two different ones in it right now. I know I seen in one of the posts the ones I need, going to look thur the posts to find out what ones to get,

on the coin optics below the coin comparitor there is a very (very) small button that can be used to put test credits on the machine while the door is open.

sixcardmark · « **Reply #18 on:** April 14, 2021, 05:08:45 PM »

Starters are FS-2. Coin holder in the CC is spring loaded on backside, the spring probably came off.
