When I bought these off e bay I assumed that they were "plug and play" ,-however, it appears none of them work! Machine is still on 86% and 10p play. Any advice would be extremely grateful guys. I thank any response in anticipation.

I had a similar problem on rocky club mpu5. I discovered that the percentage and stake was set via the main mpu5 board on the 2nd set of 8 dip switches. It was difficult to see them at first they are kind of hidden right in the bottom corner on the mpu5 board.

Thanks for the reply, but ,I thought that the "key" would override the dill switch settings. Am I right? I can't understand why nothing happens when it's "plugged" in! Question is, "is there a procedure before plugging in these keys?? Help please!

there's a dill switch on the mpu5 that put the machine into acrademode or bettingshop mode (can't remember the exact terminology)

If this switch is on the "on" postion, it will over-ride the percentage key.

the normal switch postions on mpu5 or off possibly with the exception of switch 8 which maybe on. (switch 8 was utilised years ago in an update which stopped people drilling the note acceptors and emptying the machines via the c-c talk line)

take a note of current switch settings on the mpu and switch them off one by one. i think its swtich 4 or 5.
