Yep, thats what it has been tracked down to in the end - board damage resulting in at least one track being knackered.

Did you get a new board yet Steve (Pager)?

No new board yet, I don't think there are many of these with the flash upgrade slot floating around.

% payout still 140% after battery change and lots of play!!

Post by pager »

Ive now changed the battery,and for the first time,its now storing the volume memory all the time,however the payouts are still 140% odd.
Just cant seem to get the thing to start recouping after decent wins,does anyone have any ideas that may solve this problem?

Thanks

Hello mate,
As I just posted on the Mecca, it's got to be something like corrupt ram, if the board is now fixed?

Yeah the board seems ok now,although there is a small area by battery not 100% from damage but looks ok to me.
How do you reset the ram mate? Is it hold the button in back for 10secs on switch on?

cheers

Thinking about it you had the same problem with the old board? So it can't be ram.
