IGT S2000 Tabasco Machine All Board LEDs No VFD Message
« on: January 21, 2023, 02:40:04 PM »
Hi all,

I recently purchased an IGT S2000 Tabasco Machine. The machine did not come with clear or key chips so I haven't tried those yet, but I figured that the error is significant enough that those chips wouldn't save me. When I boot, all LEDs turn on except for the red, then after a moment, the red turns on. There is no reel spins and the VFD is completely off. Also the ticket printer and bill validator seem to be off, however, the ticket printer's LEDs on the side are all on. I have checked the coin cell battery and it is at 3.0v and there is no green battery and no signs of corrosion damage (See pictures attached). Any ideas what to try?

Do you have another power supply to try? The one behind the reels. Make sure it is tight as well.

Look closely at how your base chip is installed. The notch at the end needs to face the other way.

AZ and I posted at the same...lol

The SB chip is backwards!
Did you buy it like that?

Anyways, the notch on top of the chip should be pointing towards the left in your picture.
I circled it in green for you.

I reversed the game chip, still same results. Only difference that I don't think was there before is the bottom light on the door seems to switch between bright and dim. All LEDs are still lit.

Unfortunately, I don't have a second power supply, only a second game board.

How did the SB chip get installed in that direction?
It's quite possible that it's now fried.

Does the second "game board" have a base chip installed?  If so, swap it out with the one that was in backwards (even if it isn't the number)  and see if the game boots up.  If so, then your Tabasco base chip probably was destroyed by being installed backwards.  Usually, but not always installing it backwards doesn't hurt it.

Tried the other game chip. The Red LED is flashing every ~20 seconds now and no door light issues. Still no VFD

The person that put the chip backwards may of well bent a pin on the bottom of the MPU board?
Take a look under there.
May need a small pair of tweezers to straighten.
I circled in green where you need to check the pins....there's a lot of 'em.

Note: Make sure you turn OFF the power switch whenever swapping parts, installing or removing boards.

Read about changing parts on here before I bought it, always followed proper safety  :yes:  I've checked the pins that connect to the motherboard, 0 bent pins.

okay good job.
I don't like that you're not getting anything on the blue VFD display.
Does any messages come up on the blue VFD display when you turn on the machine with NO MPU installed?
What chips do you have on the other MPU?

Get a key and clear chip.  Start from scratch after verifying all chips look good and are installed properly.

You made my heart race sir, no board makes the VFD print "Display's NETPLEX is down." and the bill acceptor cycle. I attached photos of the front with no MPU (VFD cut off cause of shutter speed) and the flashing that happens when I use my second MPU

If it was a EEPROM seating issue and I reseat them without using any clear and key chips, will I get a different error on the VFD? I'm in Canada so it takes a while to buy the chips as most people are US sellers.

We have members in Canada...I'm near Montreal 4 days a week eh? :rotfl:

Where you at?lol

I can make you a new working SB chip and mail it from quebec no problem...but I want you to try the other chips first...I need to see if they're compatiable with each other once I see what you have.

Earlier you said you checked your battery....how did you check the voltage without removing it from the board?

You cannot get an accurate reading if it's still in the holder.

If you removed the battery for a prolonged amount of time, you may have lost/cleared the settings anyways...you WILL need a Keychip at some point in this hobby.

Board 1 is the one with the Sketchy looking chip, Its apparently from a Double Diamond Deluxe that the seller used for parts.
Board 2 is the Double Diamond's board, but with the Tabasco chip. (this is the one that flashes the LEDs)

Also I've swapped the SB chips and tried each on both boards and the SB chips dont influence the behavior, leading me to believe its the board itself or other chips that are causing the problem.
