Hi All

Anyone know how to fix a coin acceptor thats suddenly stopped taking cash ?

Ive made sure there are no jammed coins and cant see any other obvious problems

Its a £250 Crystal big night out machine if that helps please help !!

or does anyone know how to find a fruit machine engineer ?

cheers

Mat

you can't just fix a mech when it breaks down,it has to be repaired,if your machine has a dual coin entry chute above the mech and is connected up and not just used as a rundown,it could just need the optos cleaning and you could also have a look to see if the mech itself is dirty

Thanks but i tried cleaning it to no avail

The whole machine has gone on the blink now and wont even initialise properly

I really need someone to come out to look at / fix it for me

Im willing to pay - unless its stupidly expensive then i'll bin the machine - bit of a waste tho

Have a look on ebay for coin mech, If you have no luck still just sell it on ebay and put coin mech disconnected due to ebay rules

like the way youre thinking but thats a bit naughty isnt it !

The whole machine has gone Pete Tong now and wont initialise properly

this sums up my luck on slotters - cant even win when i buy my own machine
