With the door open and machine on, turn the jackpot key 4 times. Display should say press test button for 4 seconds. Do that it is the one on the front of the MPU. Display will say close door and it should start booting

Sounds like you are getting close, Phil.

Keep the faith!

I'm getting closer I hope to the truth but it's only thanks to you 😊
I suck at IGT and it's sad because I've had a lot of Bally's before but this is my only IGT

So the machine plays well, collects the coins well, allows me to play, the sound is TOP, the light around the screen also works very well but unfortunately I don't have the video of the animation that appears on the screen…
Do you have any good advice for me?

Many thanks in advance

Well, alas, all is not so well.
I have a Cloture M message and sometimes door open with TILT also despite it being closed but I have the impression that the problem comes from the small connector present on the door and on the machine.
The reels start spinning endlessly...
When I press hard on the door it starts again but it does not last, I assume that this is also a tilt or a system against cheaters

The reels turning slowly is a reel tilt. Open door turn key they will stop. Close door and they should finish last spin. Next is the monitor lighting up saying please wait? If machine is playing just no video it is most likely the pl520 inverter board on the side of monitor. You can shine a flash light sideways on screen and see the video

With the photos of the connectors of the door and in the machine

I can clearly see 3 cards in place on the screen, which card needs to be changed?
Indeed with a light on the side I can see the scrolled images well but it is very little visible

With the monitor cover off, far left outside of case is the pl520 inverter. 1 inch by 5 inches. Look outside the fan. Has 3 small plugs

Oops my mistake ls520 so sorry

Hello, thank you all for your help and your precious answers

, I will order it today.
I had trouble finding this card with this reference but I understand better now

I have not yet seen where it is or what to disassemble to access it in the end for the moment

filounet · « **Reply #92 on:** January 08, 2023, 03:42:03 AM »

I found and I ordered thank you all and have a nice day

therockinelvis · « **Reply #93 on:** January 08, 2023, 05:38:15 AM »

I can't believe I don't have a picture of installed inverter. However, if you look at this picture you will see circled JP1. Place a jumper on it so when monitor is booting you see what stage it is in. Just above JP1 is a small ribbon cable that goes outside the case to the inverter. 2 Phillips screws and 3 mini plugs. Hope this helps. At least you can play the game now. If you enter the bonus no big deal. I think pressing the spin button declines offer and pressing the max bet accepts offer. You get 4 offers. The last one you have to take

Thank you for your great help, here is the photo of the board in my machine, I hope to receive a new board soon to make it work normally

Hi,
I'm finally back after some health problems and as all is well I'm going to resume the post where I stopped, namely the change of the card to have the images from the LCD screen, the small board is now changed and I finally access the images, however I have new error messages that I didn't have before ☹
I obviously replaced the two button batteries on the MPU and on the video card that I had removed during my absence.
As a reminder, I have already repaired and completely restored many Bally machines but this IGT is my first and unfortunately I therefore have no spare parts to carry out tests if necessary.

The error messages are as follows:

•   CALL ATTENDANT
•   General Reel TILT
•   CLOSURE M

Sometimes the MPU lights are on and sometimes they are off
Thank you for your valuable help and any advice you can give me to finally get this machine working again.

The next

We need to see a picture of your bill acceptor.
A general reel tilt message is showing.
If the reels are slowly turning, open the door and turn the key once to stop the reels.
Then close the door and tell us what you see on the VFD display.

Your anniversary is coming up.
You've been working on this Vision machine since June of 2021 ??
