    Second day ever owning any kind of machine such as this so I going to need detailed help on why this Hopper Error light is on and even with the hoper full of tokens it still comes on and it won't take coins etc. I promise if you can take me through step by step it will be the only time I ask for a help with a HE error again I don't wan to screw this machine up. ButIm not Stupid It sometimes my blindness shows through so specific details is best. Thank you so much for just reading this long of a request if you do. Nothing else😂

    Sounds like you may have a token jammed in the hopper or an interruption with the sensor where the tokens come out. I do not have this brand of machine but others should be along over the coming days. Presuming that your comment about blindness refers to your vision, are you able to take apart large and / or smaller parts to clean or inspect? No need to worry about asking again another time. We are all here to help one another.

    Hello

    Welcome to PachiTalk!!

    I'm not sure why you are getting HE errors when your hopper is full, but I would start with the basics for trouble shooting first


    So just to double check that you are doing the correct FULL reset including the odds change, here's some info on resetting, I have collated from the Forums for you,

    It's also possible that you may have the machine set up to require a re-set after a Bonus, if so then you may wish to put the 2 switches into the 'off' position as detailed at the end of the following:


    "How To Set the Skill Levels of Your Pachislo
    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, and depress both "BET CREDITS" and "COLLECT CREDITS" buttons 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.


    Also just to confirm some additional info regarding hard reset

    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



    Do let us know how you get on and hopefully our more technically minded members will be able to assist with further trouble shooting for you

    Couple more details here .there is a toggle switch around the side of the hopper that has been broken off. I can't find an internal key switch however the door key for the outside goes counterclockwise for some resetting .thing. I hope I'm not too much troubel but could someone tell me how to date my machine I have no clue.wondering cuz apparently California has certain laws ,screwed up laws but indeed they are laws VB on owning one of these machines.
