The DBV doesn't even need an MPU in the machine to cycle when powered up.
Told ya in Reply #3...you probably toasted everything when you saw sparks.

Go ahead and plug more stuff with the power on.

Better get your wallet ready.

Change out the power supply and bill validator.

I did

okay...your DBV 200 has to have at least the right I.D. protocol 022/023 like this in this picture I just took of my DBV for you.

Needs a 15A power supply

Does your validator powersupply have vents ?

DBV 145 had no vents, the power supply looked exactly the same as the one for the DBV200. The difference being small airvents.
The one for the 145 had insufficient power (Amps) to reliably work with new validators and needed to be changed.
Some vendors (no names) didn't go to the trouble to change power supplies when they put in the new validators. Subsequently they didn't work reliably or sometimes at all.

DBV=Dollar Bill Validator, WBA = World Bill Acceptor.

The power plug is the same.

Ok I had a little success this morning, I had another bill transport that matches the slide in plug on this machine so I put the chip that's in the bottom of the transport that's not working and put it into the bottom of this one. Now it cycles and the yellow bezel light comes on & stays on like it should. I've tried to insert a dollar bill in all 4 directions and it will pull it all the way in and then send it back out every time
I opened up the head & cleaned the readers inside with a slightly damp cloth & wiped them dry, thinking they may be dirty but it's still taking a bill in & sending it back out. Anything else I can try?

$1 are the most readily accepted. I would work with that first.
Next check the dip switches. You need to be set to the right protocol.
some jurisdictions turn off certain bills due to fraud. This is a longer shot.
Colored newer bills may also be rejected based on the age of the chip.

I'm trying just regular single dollar Bill's, it pulls them in & sends them back out every time though

jay · « **Reply #27 on:** November 26, 2020, 12:10:25 PM »

Since this came from another machine is the protocol set correct ?

br549autosales · « **Reply #28 on:** November 26, 2020, 12:16:07 PM »

Not sure about the protocol but I'm using a different bill transport but put the chip from the non working transport in this one and I'm using the same head. Can you not swap the transports and just use the original chip in the bottom or would that cause the problem I'm having now with it taking in the bill & sending it back out?

Stayouttadabunker · « **Reply #29 on:** November 26, 2020, 12:20:40 PM »

Maybe try cleaning the optical eyes?

Sounds like it's not reading the bill correctly.

What Version is the chip you're using?

Is the label gone?

Can you read the chip with a programmer?

br549autosales · « **Reply #30 on:** November 26, 2020, 04:16:27 PM »

Unfortunately the label is gone & been replaced with a new $10 decal so I don't know what chip is in the transport

br549autosales · « **Reply #31 on:** November 26, 2020, 04:23:00 PM »

All of the dip switches on the transport are set to off position

br549autosales · « **Reply #32 on:** November 26, 2020, 04:26:15 PM »

These are the numbers on the 2 transports I have that I can use, not sure the numbers on the transports will matter since there is no number on my chip in the bottom of the transport

br549autosales · « **Reply #33 on:** November 26, 2020, 04:26:57 PM »

2nd transport

sixcardmark · « **Reply #34 on:** November 26, 2020, 05:43:27 PM »

Use 2nd transport id023, 1st is - id003 (bally)

Try a 10 or 20 dollar bill. NJ likes to disable $1 bills.

br549autosales · « **Reply #35 on:** November 26, 2020, 09:58:13 PM »

Man I hope that works, thanks I'll try that in the morning

br549autosales · « **Reply #36 on:** November 27, 2020, 09:59:28 AM »

I tried that and it's still taking the 20.00 bill in & sending it back out after about second. Let me ask this. It may be better to just buy another complete WBA unit for this game. I'll post a WTB in the classifieds section.

br549autosales · « **Reply #37 on:** November 27, 2020, 10:13:28 AM »

I think a read a post before a out a chip you can get for your S Plus machine what will give you 50 or more credits for every quarter you insert? Anyone know who has those available?

sixcardmark · « **Reply #38 on:** November 27, 2020, 10:47:48 AM »

Did you check the credit/hopper and BV limits?

br549autosales · « **Reply #39 on:** December 05, 2020, 04:54:42 PM »

Everything is working great now, purchased another updated bill acceptor from a member here and now it works great, thanks for all the help guys
