Can anyone help please? We have a Bell Fruits Club Viva Mexico that has just started restarting itself in a loop. Sometimes with will let you play for a short time then cut out and restart when playing other times it doesn't let you play just restarts in a loop. This only happens when in paid mode - not in free play. We have checked all the door sensors and made sure it is properly locked up but still this is happening - any ideas?
Also where is the battery likely to be - I'm wondering if this is in need of replacing?
Thanks in advance
It'll almost certainly need a new / refurbished / tested and working power supply to cure resetting problems. Battery failure wouldn't cause resetting, however a leaking battery will damage your mainboard and could lead to all kinds of problems.
The battery will normally be a smallish green cylinder on the Scorpion 4 mainboard mounted on the back of the machine, to access it you may need to remove the large metal cover on the mainboard.
I'm only a hobbyist but there's a few more techie types who I'm sure could offer more in depth advice
If you get stuck don't hesitate to ask

Hopefully recovering from years of compulsive gambling and wanting to be gamble free forever.
