Other than the display width problem (which I think is an open issue on another thread) would you say the machine is working 100% ?  Coin hopper pays out, pushbuttons work, button lites ok, fluorescent lighting, the pull handle works, etc?

Does your coin optic boards have the 25cent spacer between the boards, that's what forces the coin to pass thru the coin optic boards properly and get detected. Don't forget to try replacing the sample coin, it's easy to do. Not all quarters are created equal - metallically speaking.


I have the same issue (sometimes the coin is not detected).  The machine was changed out from $0.50 setup to $0.25 setup.  I changed the coin in the comparator but not the spacer (didn't know to change it or not).  Is the spacer different for the $0.50 vs $0.25 coin?

Yes. Each coin size used a different coin guide thru the optics. If your using a .50c coin guide running quarters, your machine will miss counting some coins. The guide keeps the coins centered as they pass the optics.
Please remember to make a donation to NLG for mine/our help in repairing your machines problem.. Your donations help keep this site on line.
And remember...
If it's jammed, force it.. If it breaks, it needed to be replaced anyways...

Thanks, The coin guide you're talking about is the plastic part that the optics sandwitch in a S2000 machine correct?  The metal guide on the outside (coin entry) is already changed.  Just want to make sure since I could be calling the parts by the wrong name :-)

FYI, coin and hopper optics should read zero in test mode.They go to 1 when a coin blocks their optic.
Let them that don't want any, have memories of not getting any.

The black plastic quarter coin guide should be available through most of the venders located on the top of the home page. Check with Ohio gaming, Midwest slots or post a WTB ad in the classified section here. I’ve seen them on EBay.

Woops, used to using the scope. 0 = xsistor is on, 1 = xsistor is off.
