Also here is a link to the topic i started when i had a similar problem with my E2000, maybe you can gain some insight from it.

those pics are great, thanks. big question. if you close the door tight without locking it, do you get the code 50 displayed ? im curious if both switches have to be engage to get the code 50. let me know if you get a 50 just by closing the door tight, and leaving the slide in the unlocked position.

thanks

As soon as I unlock the door code 50 appears in the display, it does not go away until a coin is played and the handle pulled during normal game mode.

i want to make sure i have it exactly right. as soon as you unlock the key you get the code 50, even before you swing the door open?

thanks

Yes because I have the cam plate that activates the door lock switch. You do not have that cam plate therefore your machine would not display code 50 until the door is physically open and the hinge switch is actuated.

i dont get the 50 at all. never see a 50. hinge switch is good.

That is unusual but probably not related to the reel stop problem your having. Have you measured voltages from the power supply yet? That can definitely cause the problem your having with the reels.

are there test points anywhere? on the schematic i see regulated 5V, lots of unregulated 9.5V, and zero crossing. whats should zero crossing be? all tested referenced to ground, correct?

thanks

a picture is worth a thousand words

nice! where is that from, i'd like to have the rest of it

thanks

go to the top of the page go to file system go to Bally's go to E 1000 2000 the last file is the manual it's a campy little manual but it helps a lot when you're trying to test
it is a must-have I have an original copy but to keep it clean I went down to have this one printed Prince really nice

90% chance is a reel reader. when i move it around, the problem moves. all the optics light, maybe a weak receiver.
when adjusting the reader position, do you go for center, or bias toward the optic or receiver side? i tried all 3 ways, no help. anyone have a reel reader?

thanks

i want to be sure i have a E2000 so i get the correct reader. how can i be sure? the displays appear to be square. there is no tag on the machine

Jon · « **Reply #33 on:** March 31, 2016, 09:23:08 AM »

look on the boards see if they have a tag on them for what they are you will have to look at the readers the early 2000 readers are 50 volts the newer ones are low voltageI do not know the difference in appearance between the two

puckhead · « **Reply #34 on:** March 31, 2016, 09:26:26 AM »

there is no 50v on the power supply, other than that, i dont know

Jon · « **Reply #35 on:** March 31, 2016, 09:28:04 AM »

post a couple of pictures of the board is there a big resistor on the board

Jon · « **Reply #36 on:** March 31, 2016, 09:38:51 AM »

this is a view of the large resistor on the 50 v. I don't have any low voltage boards but I have several of these I don't know what the low voltage board looks like anymore been too long since I work on a late model 2000

puckhead · « **Reply #37 on:** March 31, 2016, 09:47:25 AM »

its 50 V

thanks

I would be sure what voltages you have first. Most E2000 were 5 volt, the E1000s were 50. I thought my problem was the reel reader as well so I replaced it but it did not fix the issue. It was the power supply. If you have less than 4.98 volts at the 5 volt test point replace the power supply. If you really want to replace the reader board though I have one.

puckhead · « **Reply #39 on:** March 31, 2016, 10:03:40 AM »

5.01 V. the 9.5 and zero cross were a tad low, 8.95 and 6.95. still , the problem moves with the reader. when i put a meter on the sensors and hit them with light, 3 of them are flaky.
