Title: Door open t
Post by: johnscorpio13 on February 24, 2023, 10:58:31 AM
Hi, after researching earlier form topics about door open errors on bally a2 without answers, I'm reaching out for help, I recently removed and replaced a topper on a v22, and I'm getting an "open door t" error, from earlier posts the t error= bonus topbox door, where is this switch/door located and how do I clear the error, any help would be appreciated.
Thanks, john

The manual defines t switch as 'Top Box Switch'.  In another part of the manual, it refers to the "Top Box" as the topper. A bit confusing but this is all I found.

yes, top monitor switch (upper left hand side) has been bypassed, only removed and replaced topper with new, all same connections? was working fine with old topper with bad screen, will try to remove wires to topper and any update progress, ..............

ok, tried unhooking topper, still "open door t" guess i'll try a ram clear and see if that makes it go away, is there a setting during setup about topper maybe?

No, there is not. I think you need to check the wiring on the switch since it’s sensing it’s open. You may have nudged something when you changed out the topper.

SOLVED! ok, found solution to open door small "t", apparently it has to do with the candle above the topper. I purchased a replacement topper and below is a pic of the lower part of the harness that goes to the candle. I used this one when hooking up the new topper, upon further investigation, the original harness from the old topper had more wires and a jumper wire, upon swapping the harnesses the error went away!
