Title: S2000 Insert Tickets or Bills will not light up
Post by: Boredom on September 20, 2021, 06:53:15 PM
Picked up an S2000 and have been slowly working through it to get everything working.  Beyond a few parts I still need to get, there's one thing that just won't work for me.  The "Insert Tickets or Bills" yellow insert never lights up.  I've tried a new board, but cannot figure out what's wrong here.  It appears as though the connection from the board to the DBV is correct.  I haven't figured out where the 13v is supposed to be coming from, nor have I confirmed whether or not it's getting power.  Suggestions as to where I should be looking?  Unit is a 5-reel with a 1270 enhanced board.  Appears to have had a rodent for a short stay, thankfully nothing chewed, but lots of cleaning/sanitizing needed.  Been working through it for a little while, many thanks to all that have provided help to others in the past.  A few searches have helped me solve most of my issues.  Just stuck on this last one.

Thank you

Does the BV work or just not light up?

BV works like a champ.  Just cannot get the bezel to light up on the machine.  Could be possible that I have two bad light boards.

Does it have bulbs in it or does it have a LED panel?

LED Panel on both the boards that I have.

If it's plugged in at the panel and behind the BV then panel is bad or a wire has been chewed.

Thank you, time for some shopping.  My OCD just can't let it stay non-op.

If you can, hook up a 9 volt battery to the led panel.  It should tell you if the LED's are working, maybe a bit dim, but should light up. Get the polarity right. ( you can probably hook it up backwards and not do any damage, just for second or two if you need to). Best to hook the battery up correct.  :yes:
If both of them don't light, then probably wire problem.

I can try the battery thing and post a picture tomorrow if you want to wait.

Was able to test for 13v to the panel, looks good there.  Have a new panel coming, was wondering if the DBV connection could be the issue.  The unit has a SC6602 setup, have connectors from the unit with 2, 3, 4 and 5 positions.  Have power connected to the 2-position connector, this board is connected to the 4-pin(only two wires), and I'm assuming comms are the 5-position connector.  There is nothing on the 3-position connector, which has wires at the first and third position.

yes I believe the 2 to 4 pin connector is the light.  It must have a break in it somewhere.

Good to know, I think I probably just have two bad boards.  I was able to ohm out the wires from card to dbv, unless its at the harness on the 6602 itself, wiring looks solid.

Thank you

I had two bad boards.  Received another today and light works as expected.

Thanks for the info and suggestions.
