Hej!

I recently stumbled across a Barcrest Andy Capp M/C in Southern Jutland of all places! The Danish market comprises of 2 manufacturers of Fruit machines....Compugame ( Esbjerg ) and DAE ( Thisted ).

If anyone has seen Gamatica m/c`s ( by Astra ) in the uk, then this is roughly the type of gameplay used on the market here. Apparently, a Compugame designer defected to the UK & has designed DOWNTOWN, MOULIN ROUGE etc.

So I was extremely surprised to find Andy with a D-Mark coin insert & 500 Lire & 50p token slots!!

I got it started in test mode, but 2 hours later, the lamps went out & 2 days later everything else went dead. I have continuously checked & changed all fuses, connections etc & have arrived at the conclusion that the Transformer ( 12v, 34v, 48v ) has expired!

Anybody got any advice on where to pick up a replacement?

There is currently a Barcrest MPU4 traffo on Ebay, but do they differ much from machine to machine & what should the used price roughly be? Remember I have to pay postage to DK on top of the tag!

Hope to hear from someone....all the best from Denmark
