Fruit Machine Chat

Hi, i have just bought a second hand fruit Machine - Golden Casino and i can't for the life of me get it to work. It comes on, loads up (CD ROM/RAM) But all it says is Bank £0.20 and Left to pay on the LCD panel. If i put a coin in it just drops straight through and out the bottom. I've tried pressing the green reset button on the circuit board but nothing happened.


There are 4 tubes, 3 for £1 coins and 1 for 20p's, how full does it have to be? Will the machine not accept money if theres not enough in the tubes, i've put like £200 worth of £1 coins in a tube.

Also, the Reserve and Cashpot don't light up once the machine is on, nor do any of the Hold buttons, although when i fiddled around with a few wires i got some random jibberish on the cashpot/reserve?

One last thing, would you have any idea as to why when i press the green reset button on the circuit board it does absolutley nothing, does it sound knackered or would you think it's just a small problem, i'm so confused it's really bugging me!

Any help would be so much appreciated guys, thanks in advance!!

WELL DOESNT COMMON SENSE TELL YOU THAT IF THERES 20P LEFT TO PAY, THEN YOU NEED TO PUT 20p's IN, NOT £1's

Look on the 20p tube, these should be 2 sensors - 1 near top and 1 near bottom, if the bottom sensor doesnt detect any20ps then its not going to pay out cos it thinks theres none there

as for your lights - ring an engineer

OH

and the machine will not accept money if theres money still left to pay out, wack £20 of 20p's in and youll be laughing
