Triple Diamond S+ 61 Code and More?

(1/3) > >>

Mord:
Finally bought my first slot the other day, was told by the owner that it "needed to be reprogrammed". Got it home and plugged it in to get a 61 code. No spinning reels, just flashing candle alternating blue and white. Followed the advice here and did not clear the RAM.

Pressed the self test button, it made a ding, and got it to display 61-1. Still no spinning. Closed door and turned jackpot key once. Display now showed 00 where before it displayed 61-1.Tried inserting a coin, it falls below into tray. Bill validator does not suck in bills or light up but made sounds on power up. I have not yet checked the condition of the board inside.

The reels do have some form of power to them, as l can feel a resistance when applying a slight pressure trying to turn them with power on.

Yes l am a newbie so please be gentle but l want to learn and am still excited about my new machine despite it not working yet.

Sounds like the door was not shut all the way.  Make sure the door lever is all the way down.

Mord:
l should also add that after powering off the machine, l got the same error code(s) and issues.

...and you will keep seeing that [61] until you clear it by making sure the door optics "see" each other.
They could be out of alignment, but sixcardmark is right in saying that your door is NOT in a closed state.
If it was, you wouldn't see the two zeros when you turned the jackpot reset key.
Also, you will always hear the DBV (dollar bill validator) run the stacker mechanism for a few seconds, when powering up the machine.
It will not accept bills if there's an machine error though.

Back to the problem...FYI  The door has an emitter optic, the cabinet has a receiver optic.
With the power [ON], you could look for a blue-ish, infrared light coming out of the door-side emitter optic by viewing it with a digital camera.
The cabinet-side receiver optic doesn't emit light.

Give us as much details you can and we'll help you get your machine running the way it should....try this...>>>

Watch the [Coins Played] display on the reel glass as you slowly push the door latch fully all the way down.
Whatever number is in there should momentarily go out, and then come back on.
If that doesn't happen, there's something wrong with the door optics.
Try moving the door lever slowly up and down to try to get the [Coins Played] number to go out, and report back.
