when you open the top door and it resets it should say door open if so press the test button and it should give you options press start and find the volume option and it should work if not try opening both doors and use your refill key that might work

Assuming it's the MPU5 Ooh Aah Dracula, it *should* be accessed through the refloat key.

You have to hold in the middle hold button, then turn the key, and it should say something like 'VOLUME 1 > 20 = 10' on the display, you need to use the hold buttons to change the value, and then turn the key back and remove it to set the volume.

If it's the MPU4 rebuild of the machine, which I believe was made by BWB, then I'm not 100% sure as I've not worked on MPU4 BWB stuff, it may well be in the Test mode routine as shown above.

cheers for the help, sorted it by holding the middle hold and turning the key, one more question, does anyone know if theres a setting where i can make the lights flash when the machine is just sat there, as the lights are on all the time.

you will need to find the attract mode dip switch on the main mpu board

all the dip switches numbered 1 to 8 should be in the off position

Did you switch the machine off before you started flicking switches?Edit turn the machine off then put the switches back to there origonal positions then turn it back on and see if theres any life.
