    Default Please help ASAP-Crazy Cherry Machine is Down w/Error Code E2-Need up by Friday

    Hi,

    Please help ! My Pachisolo Barcrest Crazy Cherry machine often displays an error cose of E2 and goes into a non-stop flashing of dimmed lights and sound. It will only quit after I turn off the machine and reset.

    It appears to be related to the coin hopper? since I can force it to occur when I request a payout of credit or inserted coin. I have looked at your website and thinking it may need a master reset? I have tried the basics of turning the key and pressing down the joystick and restarting.

    Please help for I need the machine for a party that has been planned for this coming Friday. I have 30 people looking forward to your game ! Now I am sweating it !

    Thank you Thank you Thank you !

    Mike

    I think E2 error codes refer to the coin mechanism and hopper. I would suggest making sure all connection to these to parts are secure and then take the hopper out and check for jams. How many tokens are in the hopper when you get this error?

    From what I have read, E2 indicates a coin mechanism problem and E3 is a hopper problem. I can play the game for a long time without any problem. It is only when I seek a payout that I find the hopper flicks out the tokens extremely slow (typically either receive 0 or just one token only) and then immediately goes into an E2 condition. I don't think it seems to be related to the actual coin mechansim which I have cleaned out thoroughly as I also have the hopper with q-tip and alcohol.

    I am really perplexed on this and have spent 2 days working on it.

    To answer your question, I have seen it fo this when I have had 50 tokens in the machine which I would think is sufficient.

    I have had about 100 in at a time however, the same error has occurred with even more in the hopper.

    Thank you both for your interest thus far. I appreciate it.

    does it have any metal around the rim of the hopper that could be used to ground it?

    No metal around the rim however the base that slides into the machine is made of metal . There are also parts on the hopper that are metal.

    Are your tokens clean, have you tried cleaning or spraying some contact cleaner on the token acceptor and track.

    Tokens are extremely clean and of exceelent quality. I have cleaned the coin mechansim very thoroughly with rubbing alcohol. Did not try the contact cleaner though.

    some silicone spray in the bottom of the hopper may help faster token payout.
    double check your connections too

    That looks like an older model made before 2000

    I love the machine itself since it is a little sister to Barcrest Wild Cherry. I do not beleive they make them anymore. I originally purchased it from Stelth Amusements which is out of New York. They may be sending out a replacement hopper but it is going to be after the party we have scheduled for this Friday and they are unsure that this will even fix it. If it doesn't fix it, I guess I am out my favorite machine which I am trying to avoid.
