hi guys need your help!!! have just bought a bally big 5 which is a 1190 export model its a single line win but you can play 1 to 3 coins the machine will except 1 2 or 3 coins and will register them on a win the hopper will just empty itself this will happen on 1 2 or 3 coins played if I switch the machine off (it has a on off switch just inside the door) and on again it will stop what I have noticed is that the hopper spiral cam is not moving at all if I press and manually operate the coil it will count round and on say a 10 coin win it will stop the hopper paying out as it steps off the 10 win I have looked at all switches and contacts on hopper but I am not familiar with the odds multiplier and what the 2 small reels do, that have the numbers 1 to 9 on them the only thing so far I have discovered is the coil for operating the spiral cam is white-red trace but has been cut and joined to red-yellow trace and leaves the hopper beau plug on the top right hand pin as you look at the hopper plug I will trace this further but wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction I feel that the hopper works but is not getting the voltage to the spiral cam coil if any questions or photos required just ask :thank_you: |

Mark, do you have access to the old site (I believe you do, as I recognize your name from there)? If you Search "runaway hopper" on the old site, you will get lots of info on the problem there. |

1st make sure the hopper stepup coil is good that moves the cam ,the coil gets its power thur points on top coin roller when coins move it , also make sure the hopper is for right coin a small coin won't count .nothing you can,t fix on a em 1190 is just a different model 1090 was more common your most likely is a bars and sevens model aka ghost /jpo |

You need to check the contacts back behind the wiper board, by the 100 tooth gear. I had a run away hopper problem on a Bally EM.. I found the contact on the top were bent. There should be two contact that have a nylon bumper. They open and close as the 100 tooth gear is advanced. If those are not adjusted and working correct it can cause a run away hopper. I just finished working on one of those EM machines you have there. I removed the top glass and fluorescent light so I could watch my top box work. Mine would reset from three coins back to one. I found my handles switch's to be dirty and out of adjusted. Hope this help.. Gary |
