Need some Info on a pachinko machine!

[Bspeedy1978]

I got a 199? Yellow Godzilla Pachinko Machine but I don't think it is working right! It does not seem to pay out! I really don't know to much about the machine and I would like to be able to repair it! Is there any Manuals for my machine? 795.jpg800.jpg797.jpg798.jpg799.jpg

I would appreciate any help!

in your second picture i can see that the balls are not making to the jackpot motor.. looking at the back the balls should travel from the top hopper left side to the right side.then where there stoped they should travel down the right side to mid machine.. that is where the jackpot mech is..

also it looks like you do NOT have enought balls.. your going to need a few hundred more just to get the machine working.. your going to need at least 500 to play the machine and 1000 at the mininum to enjoy playing it

I understand I need more balls! If I hit a jackpot would the balls that are in the hopper pay out? Is there any manuals for this machine? I don't have a key for it.

Thanks

you do not need a key..

when your low on balls the machine knows and will keep ya from playing and restrict payouts..

there are ways around the defaults.. its not hard but then when the macines is out of balls it will jam up..

I truly believe that more balls will solve all your problems

did you understand my post above about the balls not reaching the jackpot motor?? ya will need to remove the lock so the balls can travel to the payout motor

Moparformance, doesn't mean the key type of lock. More of a ball stopper, The balls need to flow all the way to the payout motor, The machine will sence there are no balls there so will not try to pay out.
Good Luck
Really funky looking machine

I do understand about the payout motor. I got it to pay out, but the wheel that rolls the balls down to the pay out motor seems to stick or stop rolling. If I tap/slap the side of the machine the balls start to go to the payout motor. I am not sure what would cause this problem? Maybe the wheel needs lubrication?

Thanks for all the help

Mopar was referring to the small metal gate at the top of the payout section. The one pictured below has the fingers bent upward so it cannot stop the balls from rolling down the track. Also, you should open up the tracks to make sure something is not stuck in there(dirt, bugs, metal parts/wires). I had a similar issue with payouts on a Magic machine, but it took replacing the payout motor section and upper payout section to get it working right. There are a lot of linkages that all tie together and even one section worn out or mis aligned can cause that issue. Check the wear/tear on the plastic cam attached to the motor as well as the small hammer style cams that ride on that motor cam. If they are severely worn it will produce that symptom of paying out once, but subsequent payouts take a "bump" to the machine to get them going.

fill your machine and try takeing a new photo of the back of your machine..

you might have a differnent problem then the one im seeing

[Bspeedy1978]

I have great news! I believe I have found out what was causing the balls not to reach the payout mech all the time. pin2 002.JPGThis is what I found. I think it is some tool for the reward hopper release. Is there any way of finding out what the different ball drop spots does to the game? Is there a way I can find a Manual for this machine?


Thanks for all the help!!

I also would like to know how to clean the inside of the machine. It has dust where it launches the balls and looks like the back side of the glass needs cleaning.

Thanks for any help!

Congrats on the find! You have discovered(besides a lot of dirt/grime) what it wrong with over 90% of machines you get. If that wire fits in the little hole in the front of the machine, then you found a ball dump release pin.

Once you get your machine in a fever mode, then the little door at the bottom of the cell will open and allow you to get lots of payouts(and you will have to refill the top hopper quite a bit). As far as a manual, you might find one for that model frame, but probably not just for Godzilla. Good luck in your search for a manual and have fun with your machine!

Help!!! What does this mean?error 004.JPG I hit a big jack pot but this happen after about 30 seconds!!

[jdub2k5]

I got 2000 balls plus what I already had! It did not do the error code. I have hit a jackpot and had to reload for the payout. The game seems to work with out any problems. How do I clean the back side of the glass and dust off the inside?? Do I need a key?


Thanks

looking at the first post.. second picture..

about 40% of the way donw on the left side there is a tab (it looks like it is painted yellow) you should be able to push it down and that will pop the front door open.. ya might have to lift it up insed of push it down.. but either way thats how ya can open the glass..

no key required..
