I don't understand this one either. Manual says reset key should clear it but it never does for me. Restart usually doesn't either for me. In the past I have powered down, put in the clear card, made no changes once I get into the settings, powered down, removed clear card, powered up and it has cleared the tilt. So, that is what I have done. There are tons of people on here who know way more than me...

A reel tilt is normally caused by someone opening the game while it is turned on and bumping one of the reels.
 The reel is then out of alignment for the sensors that are mounted to the inside of the reel basket.


The only way to clear this, that I know of, is using the RAM clear card. You don’t need to “fix” anything while RAM clearing, but the machine will automatically recenter the reel basket while RAM clearing.

You will need a RAM clear compact flash card to do the RAM clear.


Then follow the direction I posted here that are pin’d at the top of the main Konami page.
How to RAM clear.


Here’s a guy on eBay (not me) that sells them-

I bought one from him a long time ago and his directions on how to RAM clear were crap back then.
So unless he updated his directions you’d be best off following my how to video.


Hope this helps ya.
