Michael Friberg John Kane was on a hell of a winning streak. On July 3, 2009, he walked alone into the high-limit room at the Silverton Casino in Las Vegas and sat down at a video poker machine. Take the example of a cash door switch. A malfunction on a door switch can have significant ramifications, as was highlighted in a lawsuit several years ago. While a customer was playing an IGT Quartermania Triple Diamond slot machine at the Silver Legacy Casino in Reno, Nevada, an internal malfunction suspended the game, abruptly stopping the.

First thing to check (with the power on) is to open the door and move the reels. If they move freely they are not getting any signal to the stepper motors. My prediction is that they freely move. Next turn the machine off - pull the hopper out. In the back you should have a large black knob - this is the MPU tray. Lift straight up and then out pull out. Simply replace the board back and make sure it is pressed down well and seated. When you turn the power back on you should get the stiff reels and numbers and such on your display. Post back and let us know how you made out. > wonder if there is someone that could please help me. >I have a IGT 5 x slot wild cherry 1984 model.

The wheels are not moving freely. My MPU is on the top of my machine. There is an Aluminum box on top. The front opens up and I have two circuit boards in there laying horizontal. I pulled them out, amd pushed them back in firmly. I still do not get any numbers coming up on the front display and the wheels do not turn. By the way, I goofed on the name of my slot machine. It is an IGT Fancy Fruit Model #1634-D. Thanks Tom >It sounds like your MPU board is loose. > >First thing to check (with the power on) is to open >the door and move the reels.

If the numbers did display at some time , it probly the battery thats gone flat. If its a RAM-BATTERY combo ( Lithium ) , you'l need to replace with the same kind. or install a 3.6V NiCd battery and change the jumpers so that you can measure 3V on the RAM chip. Also install a 1K Ohm resistor and 1N4148 diode from the 5V line to the battery , with the cathode of the diode to the positive pole of the bettery. Note : Record the position of your jumpers , only one jumper needs to be changed for the voltage to be present on the RAM chip ( legs # 26 & 13 ). If no success , contact me again... Goodluck...

Igt S Slot Machine Dip Switch Settings Using
Bypassing Door Optics
If there is one problem with the IGT S2000, it would have to be that if not sitting level the cabinet can and will somewhat distort itself. When this happens the door optics can become misaligned. In a Casino environment it is desirable to have the optics, working for home use it really makes no difference so you can bypass the optics and never have to worry about them again.
For this project you will need a couple of spade connectors of suitable size to fit onto the Cherry switch that is located up near the bill validator, some wire for splicing, a spade connector crimp tool and a wire cutter/stripper.

The green and black wires on the door optic harness needs to be lengthened to come back toward the hinges, under the reel tray over to the 3-way cherry switch that’s located on top of the Bill Validator.
1). Once you do that, splice the green wire from the door to the purple wire on the cabinet side optic harness.
2). Attach a spade connector to the red wire from the door harness to the 3rd tab on the cherry switch.
3). Finally, attach a spade connector to the green wire from the cabinet-side optic harness and put that on the left-most tab position on the cherry switch.
You will notice the cabinet light also works off of the cherry switch but occupies the 4th & 6th right-most tabs. You should now be free of those annoying door open errors.
The drawing is not the best, but it will give you a general idea of what you are trying to accomplish.
