Hi my machine was randomly giving a 6.0 gen meter error and alarm noise but is now doing it every time it gets switched on, looking at the little green battery doesnt show leakage, theres a box lying in the bottom of the machine called a data retrieval system 90, theres a power lead into this, the two cables coming out arent connected to the machine at all ? ? one has a scart type plug on it and the other has a strange metal bracket with a rubber grommet around a hole, please help

Wont be anything to do with the data retrieval  as those errors would be 7.x

 

Check your meters, or if its a SEC meter you will probably need a replacement.

thanks for the reply, im quite a newby on this stuff i looked at the little row of meters near the cah box and they look ok (plugged in) how would i know if they are faulty or if its an sec meter ? and finaly where is the data unit meant to plug in ? ?

Watch from 5:40.

It should help, your one will probably be in a different position, but your looking to replace the same thing.. Yours could also be an analogue meter

the bottom of the cabinet has four analogue meters meter 1 = cash in meter 2=cash out meter 3= token in meter 4 =token out, the meter i think your refering to is an analogue one that you can see through the glass its labelled "refill meter" with a little circuit board attached by wires to it, im no expert but the little board seems to have two bulbs at the end and there seems to be no solder on them underneath ? ?

Was it you that just paged me on YouTube?

Best go over to MPU Mecca, as the guys there are more able to help, including any needed parts.

Gen Met 6.0 is a general meter fault, so is affecting ALL meters fitted, not just one on it's own, so it's doubtful it's a meter fault in it's self, as the fault code would be 6.1 (Meter 1), 6.2 (Meter 2), etc

 

At a guess, the fault will be either on the board the meters connect to, or the main Epoch board itself.

Heh, nah Nick..... I had someone make a comment on my Simpsons vid earlier, and was unsure if Hadi was the one who posted the comment, asking for help.

Your nick on YT is celticmad66 right (I see you have found another MPU Mecca members page, Magik)?

Just to be sure, the avatar I use here, is the same one on my YT page, and I also use the same stanmarsh14 nick there.
