Hi all,
I’m hoping someone can help me clear the “coin out jam†from my mom’s cleopatra machine. I’m not even sure which model IGT slot it is so hopefully this is the right forum. I’ll include pictures of the machine and the board, as well as any stickers that might help identify it.
How I get here: My mom purchased the machine about a year ago, worked fine for 10 months then started getting random memory errors. From reading this site I figured it must be the memory battery, which I replaced. It worked fine after that with a small idiosyncrasy, the dollar sign changed to euros, but still worked; however, my son hit the cash out button the other day and we got a “coin out jamâ€. This was the first attempted “cash out†since the battery replacement. Prior to that it would say hand pay call attendant or something and we would just have to turn the key to get it to go away.
I got into the operator menu and can see that there is a coin hopper enabled, but there is no coin hopper. I think that’s the source of the error. It seems I need a key chip to change that setting. I see a ton of them for sale on ebay, but I’m not sure a) which number I need and b) which slot to put it in.
Anyway, I guess I’m hoping someone can steer me in the right direction on the following points:
- Identifying which machine she has
- Which key chip I need and which slot to put it in.
- How to change the setting back to hand pay only (or even just disable the cash out button all together)
- Bonus how to change the euro sign back to dollars
Thanks in advance!
