Bally triple 7 model 831 will not reset
« on: June 10, 2016, 05:38:04 PM »
I have a Bally triple 7 model 831 that when i hit the jackpot it will not reset by the reset key. I unsoldered one of the wires to make sure the switch is working correctly. Then soldered it back. I can hit the coin switch a couple of times and it shuts off the bell and blinking lights. If i try to use the key reset it will not do anything. Is there something I am not doing right? I want to get it working correctly. Thanks

The reset key is not needed to clear your jackpot.. Open the door and flick the coin switch a few times, then pull the handle.. The reels should spin and your good to go.. You can do the same with the reset key.. Turn the key and insert a coin or two, then pull the handle.. The key is there to keep the player from playing any more coins after the jackpots won, to keep them from losing out on their winnings.. The reset key once turned allows the machine to be coined up..

Gary thanks for the reply. That makes sense now. Now for some reason the bell wants to ring after about every spin even when there is no win. Should the bell only ring on a jackpot? I did bend it a little to make it hit the bell on a jackpot. Could i have messed up a switch or something?

Did you mess with any relays? Check the relay on the hopper to make sure its opening all the way up when not energized.

The only thing the jackpot key does is to momentarily re-energize the coin lockout coil behind the coin acceptor.
When a jackpot hits, a jackpot relay turns on and this relay operates a set of normally closed switches which are in line with the coin lockout coil.
They open up and kill power to the coin lockout coil.  This prevents the customer from 'accidentally' playing off his/her jackpot.
You must turn and hold the keyswitch until customer inserts coin and coin is accepted.
Then you can say, you've just won a "Pull It Sir" prize.  Ewww.

OldReno ... that is a good one. Bally did have a machine called Sir Prize which was a single line play machine with stop buttons if my memory is correct.
