I see that Tilt has you taken care of. He has helped me many times. My SS chip is different then yours. I have. 3 coin game and your is a 2 coin version.

I will be getting the new chips in today, do I need to use a clear chip before I install them?

No you shouldn't have to clear it first.

Ok this is what I have after 61-1 and turning key once, cash out light is on, 'insert coin' and 'coins played' are flashing, what next?

Tilt · « **Reply #166 on:** November 02, 2018, 05:48:35 PM »

That's a good sign. Press the test button (should be a small white button by the power switch) and hold it until you hear a "ding", then close the door, and turn the jackpot reset key.

This post has more detailed instructions:

Sorry, I misread your post. It should be ready to play. See if it will accept a coin.

jidrd55 · « **Reply #168 on:** November 02, 2018, 06:21:59 PM »

It doesn't.

Tilt · « **Reply #169 on:** November 02, 2018, 06:36:15 PM »

Darn!

Ok, well open the door and press the little white button below the coin comparitor. Here's a picture of it, it's labeled S1. Hopefully when you press it you'll hear a ding sound, press it again for the second credit if you do. Then hit the spin reels button (with the door still open). Do the reels spin?

After getting the 61-1, did you close the door and latch it before turning the reset key?

Hallelujah, thank you Tilt for the picture of the oh so tiny white button, I have searched for it for hours on end, so it's true one picture is worth a thousand words! I got two credits, played it won 10 more, everything worked as it should. However it will not accept quarters or bills and the bv lights are not lit.

Tilt · « **Reply #172 on:** November 03, 2018, 08:43:14 AM »

Making good progress now. Do you have a sample coin in the comparitor? Here's a document I borrowed from Coinco's website that has the details.

If so, then try changing it with another coin. Also there's a sensitivity adjustment that you can change that may help too. You'll need a small screwdriver to adjust it. It's located in a hole on the bottom right of the comparitor. You should see an Arrow and a + sign. Turn it counter-clockwise to decrease the sensitivity and then close the door and drop a coin in and see if it accepts it or not.

Hereâ€™s a pic of how the sample coin needs to sit in the coin comparitor.

jidrd55 · « **Reply #174 on:** November 03, 2018, 11:04:58 AM »

One step forward two giant steps back! I changed the sample coin several times no change, adjusted the sensitivity no change. Took comparitor out and this time paying attention to color of wires on connector reinstalled it. Worked like a charm, played $5 until a coin jam, 21 error code, cleared jam, closed door, will not accept coins now.

21 code back on.closing door does not clear.

Tilt · « **Reply #175 on:** November 03, 2018, 11:41:56 AM »

That happens sometimes. At least you know most of the machine is working now. I read through the thread again and see that you switched from a CC-33 to CC-16. Can you post a picture of your comparitor and optics as they are now?

jidrd55 · « **Reply #176 on:** November 03, 2018, 01:12:04 PM »

here it is.

jay · « **Reply #177 on:** November 03, 2018, 01:19:01 PM »

I would push the white button through the cycle, close the door. It should come right up.

jidrd55 · « **Reply #178 on:** November 03, 2018, 02:07:32 PM »

Yay Jay thank you, it worked, however now it only accepts 2 quarters at a time and pays wins out of the hopper; which is great cause I didn't know if the hopper worked, but I would prefer wins to credit. I know there's a way to program it in the psr but quite frankly the instructions are Greek to me. Any ideas?

Ok the hopper ran out of quarters, 3300 code will not clear with closing the door or pushing the white button running through to end and closing the door, what am I doing wrong?

Tilt · « **Reply #179 on:** November 03, 2018, 02:44:56 PM »

Glad the coin comparitor is working again. It's paying everything from the hopper because the machine credit limit with that SP1274 chip defaults to 0000 So it pays everything to keep the credits at 0. To change it do this:

Press the white self test button slowly 14 times. You should see the following on the displays:

0000 3 7

The 1's position 0 should be blinking. Press the "Spin Reels" button until it says "9". Then turn the jackpot reset key and the 10's position 0 should blink. Do the same thing, Press Spin Reels till it's a 9. Repeat for the 100's and 1000's position.

You should end up with:

9999 3 7

Press the Self test switch two more times. You should see:

0000 5 7

Set that to 9999 the same way you did with the other setting.

When it's at 9999 press the self test button one more time and close the door. Wait for the machine to reset then any credits you win should go to the meter. Hopefully your bill validator will enable too since you enabled it with the set chip.

What you did is set the machine credit limit to 9999 credits and the bill validator credit limit to 9999.
