No reset key problem solved...found perfect tool to pick lock.

Problem solved! Although there was a door key for the Olympia/Hiewa pachislo I just bought, there was no reset key. Seller stated they just turned the machine off and then back on to reset it and by golly it does reset. But...can't change the odds without a key. Could put a switch in...not patient enough right now. Tried every key I could think of..luggage key, small padlock key, desk drawer key and more... Tried a small flat head screwdriver, paperclip and yes even a bobby pin. Nothing worked...nothing even fit into the lock...until I tried a Swiss Army knife...used the blade that can be used to cut branches..looks like a little tree saw blade. Slid right in and turns back and forth easily. Odds successfully changed!

Seems those swiss army knives can do anything.I am glad you got it fixed, enjoy the machine

If you end up wanting a key just get the lock out of the power box and tote it down to your nearest locksmith (probably a smaller one that has someone who knows how to cut a simple key like that) I can imagine wal-mart would just be like "well we can't cut customs, we can just copy em"
Some guy made me one at village key, was pretty quick really. Awlays good on a quick fix but if you later want to neaten it up, take it out and have one made
