Stuck in Game over mode mephisto pachislo

[John]

HI all,

Just picked up a Memphisto pachislo and was playing it with no problems, went into the "fever" mode and now it's just stuck at game over. Have no idea how to reset the darn thing. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

John

first off, look two toggle switches near or on the power supply. make sure they are both in the down or to the right depending on how they are mounted. second follow these reset peocedures. HOW CHANGE ODDS:

"TURN YOUR MACHINE OFF FIRST"

1. Locate internal key switch, and insert key.
Note: In order to change odds, machine must be in idle mode with no tokens/coins or credits being played and off.

2. Turn "reset" key switch to on, to access programming mode.

3. Turn on machine now.

4. Depending on machine type, a number from 1 to 6 will be displayed on one of the LED meters on front door.

5. Locate and push Skill button. Depress button and notice movement of number being displayed in LED meter.

6. Once desired level is displayed (1 to 6), push down on play handle (Joy Stick) for 10 seconds, to lock odds level into machine memory.

7. Turn "reset" key back to off.

8. Machine should immediately initialize. If not, turn power switch to the OFF position, wait 15 seconds and turn power switch back to ON position.
______________________________________________________
Two switches on the power supply:
- One requires a soft reset at the end of a bonus.
- The other pays out all tokens at the end of a bonus.

For these switches in most cases off is in the down or right position. The for off and on are:

無 = off

有 = on

Try turning the outside door key counter-clockwise.

If that doesn't work, then try turning off the machine from the inside. While the door is still open, turn the interior reset key clockwise...then turn the machine back on from the inside...once its back on, press down on the black knob on the outside of the machine while turning the interior reset key to its original position.

sometimes turning the door key to the left will reset it too
