Poker Face £70 Jackpot machine - not working any ideas??

Post by wayne123 »

Hi guys

just brought Poker Face for a few quid, it's not working at the moment,

anyhow the gezza said he had tried to replace a bulb and that is where the problem has started

The lights (very few) are illuminated but very dim, and the reels whilst turn round on initialisation do not spin when on demo or real play, they just jump.

First question, can a dodgy wired bulb really affect the machine that much

There are also some flashing green leds on the circuit board, the one flashing is under 'security', this then makes 4 other boards leds flash.

One other thing, on the power pack ,although all 6 green leds are on, the last two +24v and +36v are slightly dimmer.

Sound on the machine is working ok, so a bit of a mystery at the moment,


has anyone got any ideas

It sounds to me like the power supply is goosed. Try swapping it & I bet that cures the problem.

Try disconnecting the wire connectors on the power supply and reconnecting, i had a simular problem with my trail blazer epoch machine and it turned out it was just a build up of lacquer on the points!
insert 20p to play
