    Default Please help with my pachinko problem

    Hello, just bough a used pachinko machine and it was running great for the first week I had it, but now the non the activated the hammer isn't working and I'm having a hard time trying to get access to it to see it the connection just came loose or it something broke. It's a marvel blade pachinko machine, unsure of the year

    It sounds like a newer machine. Check to make sure you have a good grip on the shooter and are touching the metal ground ring.

    Check the dongle board fuse.
    Its normally located near where the 25pin d socket is.

    Did you buy it from a shop or dealer. If so contact them asap. For after sales service.

    I bought it off ebay from a private seller, and all the connection in the back look good, I'm pretty sure in the actual connection in the handle, but I cannot figure out a way to get access to it

    Yes. But the shooter is controlled by the dongle and the CR board. If the dongle isn't seated properly or fuse blown then everything will work except the shooter. Some machines with give an error message on the back display, but not all. IF any of my shooters stop working. Thats the first thing I would do.

    Well the fuse isn't blown, after rechecking the connection to the board, while turning the knob, it will kick on for a few second before stopping again. But now even when it does go on, even on full blast it doesnt have enough power to get the balls into the play area

    Can you post a Photo of the front Door of the machine open with the front ball tray open also . With the machine OFF and UNPLUGGED you could unplug and plug in the connectors in the back . Sometimes the connections will get a little corroded and by unpulg and plugging them in you knock the corrosion off .

    Well I can open the door, but I cannot figure out a way to open the ball feeder portion, I see the hinge it pivots on, but cant find a latch or what's holding it

    Their should be a little metal "button on either side of the inside of the front top ball tray just push it down and the ball tray door should open . The best of luck on your machine .

    For your upload issue it may just be as simple as your file size.

    The picture is your last post was 1.62MB and the largest in your other post was 1.89MB.

    So have a look at reducing the picture file size in paint, depending on what application you have some suggest the best way of saving a picture for a forum post, as I have encountered this same problem.

    Hope that helps.

    Okay I got the knob off, fixed the connection issues, but now when it fires, even on full blast, they only make it half way to the play area

    That can sometimes happen if the playing field is mis aligned in transit. Not sure about on this frame though.

    Possible hammer strength adjustment in the back of the Machine ? It should be near where the back of the hammer (Shooter) mechanics/electronics to control it.
