So i just picked up one from this forum , and I'm having two "major" issues with the machine.
1)The auger works, however, it won't run off the board. The previous owner had it rigged up so that power to the auger is spliced in with power to the machine. So basically, you turn the machine on, and the auger turns on with it, as opposed to when a game starts. My friend and i tried removing the mod and reconnecting as normal, but no luck. The games playable still, but it certainly isn't preferred to having the auger running during any power up time.
2) when the game boots, it always boots to the "3509 4" display. I can go in and adjust settings (such as changing to free play) and then play the game, but as soon as i either shut the machine off, or release the interlock switch in the coin door mech, all settings revert to how they were and i have to repeat the cycle. The manual states that this is either a low battery issue (which it isn't, since i have brand new batteries in there) or to try power cycling, which I've done to no success.
Any ideas?
