Brilliant would you happen to know anymore about the arcade? And any contact details?

Barcrest Boulder Dash machine wanted, needs to be fully working as a gift for someone

lol glad i could help

CL on a fruity usually means cash low, but its usually a bulb that lights up the CL decal, maybe your machine has it on the led display? if the reels are trying to turn it sounds like mine, but mine has a power problem on the board, it doesnt keep the charge in the capacitor, so i have to turn mine ...

incase you still have the prob, maybe the dil switches are set to have a note reader but as there isnt one its throwing up a fault? i'd look through the manual & find the dil switch values to check its not looking for a note validator

the only loom i know of in a fruit machine would be the wiring loom, as in the wires, connectors etc

if theres no 48v i'd say that could be your problem, maybe check if the power supply in the bottom of the machine has any fuses to change inside? i dont know the scorpion board, but maybe check the area where the lamp output is labelled, or if on a seperate board look to see any black marks, if you ...

Hi, from my limited experience it could be an earth problem, have you checked all the earthing points? its usually a power problem, like its picking up the noise from a power source like the transformer or a faulty board component not smoothing the current out, the rectification circuit on my machin...

yeah its from a global/games media machine, so the flash module would come off like a maygay m1 board had the game board on it? the eclipse board i have now is working fine once its been powered up for 5-10 mins, then turned on & off once an error alarm sounds, after that the machine is faultles...

Thanks! will get on to it & check out the voltages measuring the pins you suggested, would love to know what took them parts out, maybe someone put the ac connection on 1 pin too far across as suggested before, thanks again everyone, wouldnt of known a thing if it werent for your knowledge

Hi guys, i'm after the money magic game file, its version 1.8, i need it to either flash to a new board or re-flash to my board when its been repaired, also is there anyway to copy the game file from the board or is it just a one way thing?

hi guys, just out of curiousity now the transformer works i'd connect the board up to see, anyway after a few mins ERR came up on the display, then the alarm went off, so i turned it off then back on & it all fired up working no probs?! so how does this board still work with a zener diode not pr...

thanks lee, do you think that maggi maggi would just send me the parts i need so i can do it myself & not lose the game from the flash? im having a hard time obtaining the game file from anybody so am in a catch 22 situation, i can get it fixed & tested but have no game after, or if i can ge...

also does anyone know what voltages should be coming from the psu? i measured across the first 2 of the 6 pin connector & got 18v i think, then twenty something on the next 2 down then around 18 again on the bottom 2, trying to find out why the board went, so maybe a voltage problem from the tra...
