Fruit Machine Chat

I would try changing each board one at a time. the problem with epoch tech, if theres a fault on one board it can cause plenty of other bugs glitches to appear. are you sure the main board you changed was a good one without any battery leakage?

Are all the lights flashing on all the boards? each board has a green light (flashing) and the main board has six (one is not used) if the boards getting hot it could be causing problems.
You say you can hear an alarm? are there any alarm codes on the led?

Or if you don't want to take them apart just spray a little WD40 along the edges of each button and it will dissolve the dry beer etc.

yup it should work fine, but a new barrel is piss easy to fit, just pop it in the hole and screw the thread on it, then just connect the wire connectors to the tabs on the barrel, if the machine still stays in refill mode, just swap the wires over, job done! You can get one off ebay for a couple of ...

I had this problem with the clock on my impulse trailblazer, its caused by a bug/fault in the main board i was told, so i got a replacement board off ebay and swapped my game chips over and it sorted out the problem! (if you do get another board make sure you swap your "v boot" chip also o...

I'll let you pick one mate, as all charites are good.

Makes a change from being f***ed by the machine then! pmsl

Is the power unit a "stadium" one? (grey/silver metal box?) if so these are prone to many problems, ie overheating and catching fire! It sounds like the connecter has burnt, so the best idea is to get a replacement, ebay regulary have them available so i would check on there.

Got me a pub by me thats had the same machines since november! Albeit a 70 big reds and a 35 bully's star prize.

Gotta be beef chow mein! fooking love its!!! :P :P :P

Just a quick thanks to lee, it looks as tho it is a problem with the psu, so am gonna get a replacement off ebay.

Cheers lee, Yeah all the lights are lit on the psu, i did notice a few times before all the lamps "blew" they were all going off for a split second then coming back on, thats why i thought the lamp board was on its way out, but as ive replaced it and the problens still there it must be som...

Bloody machine! I was playing my trailblazer tonight and all of a sudden all the lamps went out, theres only the ones on the reels that are alight but very dim. Ive changed the lamp board and the main board to no avail, when its switched on you can see the lights on the name light very dim but once ...
