Hello, I have just purchased the above machine in full working order, but the alarm just goes off when connecting the power supply, it also comes up with an error code 16, can anyone please help, do I have to disable the alarm ?, as it is in my house I do not see the need for the alarm, thanks in anticipation, 799roger

think thats a ram error, leave for a couple of min's it should clear...otherwise check nowt's loose like coin mech, prog card, sound card etc...

hello there back in the eaighties i used to play this machine and just guessing here but is there a coin slot error that would set off the alarm as for the code 16, my best bet is try looking for the manaul online to help you with this problem, and if you have no joy tell me and i will look for you.

No way to disable the alarm unfortunately, as it goes through the sound card itself.
Only way is to disconnect the speakers.

If it is a ram error then the backup battery is the first suspect...

Have you checked that the program card is pushed firmly into the mpu4?(with the power off!),the alarm is a characteriser error.

I have done all that but still shows code 16, on the credit display it shows 8. none of the other lights have come on at all just the displays giving the fault and the credit display

Going by my list of generic codes, this is a fault with the coin mech.

Just to let everyone know, it was the mpu4 board had failed along with the coin mec, all been put back together now and in full working order, now on a trip to restore it to a good standard, thanks to all that replied to my call for help.
