I picked out a lot of 7 older Video Poker machines over the weekend.. One is an IGT Fortune 1. I powered up to find no video display, so I swapped the CRT and chassis with a known good one, and super it's working!!
I played a couple hands and won one hand, I lifted the hopper roller 10 times and it stopped running.. Yea!!
I coined it up to play another hand and the hopper started to run,
.. I tried cycling the power, no help still running,
.. I turned it back off and tapped on the relays on the board behind the hopper, lower left corner, But once powered back on the hopper continues to run?
.. I'm thinking one of the relays on the I/O is stuck, or am I looking in the wrong area..
This is the first Fortune 1 I've had that has a sound board, and it works.. I kind of like it,
too bad that most were pulled from the machine..
