The bottom light flashes because the door is open. That's just a signal.

Took another look at the back of my reset button
the wire colors seem to match the colors of 2 disconnected wires at the top right corner of my mpu tray
Do these need to be attached? If not, where do the two wires green and yellow and gray lead to? Here are some pics of the wires.

Another pic.

If the wires are disconnected at the bottom, set your meter to ohms or if it has the tone setting (touch the two leads together and it beeps). With the power off. pull one off the button and see if the two ends "ring together". If both do I think you may have found your problem.

Sounds good! I will check it out later this evening or tomorrow and report back. Thanks!

Here's a picture of my wiring the same color running to the Molex connector. Although mine is just yellow not yellow with a gray stripe. If your colors match check it out. With the power off it won't hurt anything.

Jules, you finally found it. Just plug those together. If the plug is bad you can splice them with solder and shrink tube. Now that damned little button will work and you might not have to do a clear. I think about 40 posts ago we suggested tracing those wires.

You did!

I think it was 49 posts later. We can't all be fast learners. Late last night I got home and screw capped the wires together. I next started to do a clear and powered up the machine. Pressed the white button twice and was elated to see the numbers go up and down. Unfortunately the story does not end here. This morning I replaced the spring chip correctly and noticed the wire on the capacitor was broke. Called New Games in Bullhead City and he said it would not hurt anything to try it. When I replaced the board . When I turned it on I got the famous 61 only error. Pushed the self test button and got a 65- 1 error message. Ordered another cap. Will maybe try again tomorrow. Thanks!

You're getting there. Sounds better all the time.

therockinelvis · « **Reply #90 on:** March 12, 2015, 05:02:06 PM »

Jules, the 65-1 error should clear by pushing the test button again. 65-1 BAD EEPROM DATA press self test switch for 1 second, 65-1 clears. From the IGT manual

knagl · « **Reply #91 on:** March 13, 2015, 01:33:14 AM »

Agreed with Elvis -- you should be able to get past the 65-1 error, and that's a pretty typical one.

For reference again, here's a listing of common IGT S+ error codes, and the steps to take to resolve them:

Pressed the self test button for 2 seconds, closed the door and the wheels s.pun and got an insert coin light which I did and the wheels started to spin. Only problem I can see is when the wheels spin the motor makes a humming sound and not a clicking noise when the wheels stop spinning. Not sure if I have any volume and not sure the payouts are correct, but I have only tried playing it just a few times.

therockinelvis · « **Reply #93 on:** March 13, 2015, 12:05:38 PM »

Reel stop sounds and reel spin sounds can be set up. Did you use your set chip to turn on the BV and set the denom.? Since you did a clear you will need to do these and other settings also. Here is a very easy to follow instructions for this. http://newlifegames.com/nlg/index.php?topic=514.0. Print it out. It is good to have with your notes. So very happy you got it.

Can't thank you and the group enough----MANY THANKS!

Still working on this never ending saga. Did a Set on my S+ today according to IGT instructions. After doing so I still have no reel sounds other than the humming of the reels turning. I have been able to insert a few coins, and watched the wheels spin. I am now getting the 3300 empty hopper signal. I have emptied it and shook the coins out and am still getting this constantly. I have 1200 coins in the machine so this should be plenty I would think. I have not tried the bill hopper yet. I am able to cash out my credits when I am able to get them on the machine. I am also having trouble keeping the insert coin light on. I am using an SP 709 game chip so the 1271 chip suggestion sheet does not seem to be helping.

therockinelvis · « **Reply #96 on:** March 14, 2015, 05:30:30 AM »

A 709? I thought all this time you had a 1271. Sorry. The 1271 is the most user friendly in my opinion. With that 709 you have to pull the MPU out. On the outside tray should be a diagram of the dipswitch settings. You can turn your sound on there. Or, because everything else was disconnected check the speaker on the bottom of the door. Easy access from the front drop door. I also guess you have turned the little blue wheel on top left of the MPU volume control.

Jules · « **Reply #97 on:** March 14, 2015, 10:38:16 AM »

Still getting the 3300 error, and wrong payouts. Also, checked the dipswitch setting and the first 3 are on and the rest are off. Checked the volume wheel on the top of the cpu board and nothing changed. Tempted to do another clear and start over. I recall the person saying who I got it from that he had disconnected the speaker because he thought it was way too loud. I checked the front door and could see no loose wires, but it would help if I knew what I was looking for??

rickhunter · « **Reply #98 on:** March 14, 2015, 11:43:07 AM »

Open the "belly" door, it flips down. The speaker is in the bottom left corner. There are two wires there check to make sure they are plugged in. I disconnect them when I play at night so I don't make noise.

Jules · « **Reply #99 on:** March 14, 2015, 12:09:58 PM »

Not sure I can find a belly door and how do you go about flipping it down? Is there a release of some kind on the door?
Thanks again for your time.
