Hello guys,
So I am not exactly new to the whole slot machine games, but I am new to Konami. I have a Konami 1.5 Wild Magic, I bought it will a bad screen, it was flickering really bad and just on its way out. I was playing the game with credits on the machine with the bad screen in it, and then hit cash out... well the ticket didn't print and it required a hand pay on the ticket, no big deal... well now I have checked my cash box and head, and I have even reset the machine, but it will not accept any cash, it goes in, and comes back out. Is there a setting page I have to check in the unit or anything like that?
Thanks
Sam

To any future readers that may need help. I opened the door and turned the reset key; I went to diagnostics and enabled the bill validator, put in a $1.00 and it came back with an error that the magnetic strip was bad. I swapped out the wba 12 for a wba13 I had on hand and the machine worked!

To anyone that may need help with Konami K2V's I will help you through what ever trouble you are having.
Some of the common problems a Konami will face are listed below.
Boot Up Problems.
1. Nothing But a Black Screen upon power up.
Take your ROM riser card off the logic board and double check your ROM placement, the number one reason you would get a black screen or nothing when you power up is if these ROM chips are not seated properly in the sockets. Often you'll find that a pin or two gets bent when pushing them down into their sockets since they are not zero insertion force.
Boot Up Errors,
1. Like deadbeef which will say something like CF1 or CF2 checksum mismatch will either be a blue screen or orange screen depending on the error.
The biggest reason this occurs is because you may be using a K2V machine that has a CF card not of the right format for example someone copies the OEM card to a replacement of similar size but wrong format like a Bally's 128Mb CF card with a Konami CF image on it, with the exception of RAM clear other cards won't work unless they are of the same format type. To fix this just restore you image of the Konami CF onto a Konami CF card and reboot it will now load with no issues. If you have a standalone or linked progressive CF installed in CF2 slot on your logic board you will need to make sure the progressive image you are using has the same format as well or you'll get the dreaded blue or orange screen error.
Game mismatch errors upon boot up
1. The reason this occurs is because of the previous stored values on the CF from another K2V machine to fix this there are various RAM clear cards different versions that you can boot up with to reset those stored values to match what is needed by your machine. Simply get the right RAM clear version and choose the save existing settings option which is done by pressing the Max Bet button to proceed with RAM clear and then pressing the Max Bet button again to preserve settings so that you can verify paytable and demoninations to save and boot normal.
There are lots of problems you can have if you get a game with no settings, like bill validator issues, TITO printers, credit meter settings to prevent from having to load cash all of the time and sometimes people get these games with the wrong MEI bill validator installed in them for example it's an IGT model when it needs to be an RS-232 of specific make model. These are programmed with a PM handheld and inserted into the USB type printer port head connector.
These will need to be updated with the PM tool with the lastest firmware to support reading the latest currency. To get around this use another K2V machine to load the credits and setup a QuickStrike Standalone Progressive with certain values to keep the machine fed with credits randomly. This way you never have to reload and can play as long as you like.
Transfer wins to credit meter are one of the things you want to enable under the common game menu in the KMS program.
Let me know if any new owner needs help getting these configured and running the way you'd like including changing the play lines from say 20 to 30 or more depending on the game options available for your installed theme. I will help to the extent I can and am able, if I don't have an answer I will do simulations on my machines to help figure you issues out.
Let me know..
Also if you know of anyone that has the following games I'm looking to trade for let me know. I need help as well..

I’m having boot up problems with a K2v 2.0 upright. It takes 7 to 10 or more tries to bring up the game. Most of the time the screen shows vertical colored lines. When the game does boot up I can turn it off and on and it will boot right up . If it sits off for an hour or more it takes a few tries to boot up the game. Could this be a power supply problem? Can I buy a compaciter kit or a new power supply somewhere? Thanks

Sound like you have some bad cap problems going on. I know a guy you can get the screen from if you need it on me.

I would be open to just about anything. Just ready for a new came. Do you have the glass and bottom plastic pieces to? What kind of price are game sets and what is usually included? Games would be for a k2v 2.0 upright K2v platform. I have a Vibrant 7s game (Chips and rom card) advantage 5 platform. It will not work in my machine. Do you know anyone looking for one?
