You could try that resin stuff they use to repair car windscreens?
Just a thought probably a lousy one though

Thanks for reply Im ok with electronics but this has got me stumped as its more of a 'computer' issue. I just wondered if or what I should be looking at or checking as I have no idea why it will not boot. Asking my step bro is a bit of a sore option, it's complicated.
It may help if I knew what the diagnostic LED's meant.
A sticker underneath says;
Segment - Display 1 - Display2

TOP - DIAGNOSTIC - PERIPH COM
MIDDLE - POWER FAIL - URT 2 RTS
BOTTOM - UNDER VOLTS - URT 2 TX
UPPER RIGHT - I/O ENABLE - URT 2 TX
UPPER LEFT - REEL DRIVE - URT 2 CTS
LOWER RIGHT - LAMPS - BB/PTR
LOWER LEFT - WATCHDOG - URT 2 RX
DEC. POINT - NMI ENABLE - URT 2 DSR

What I get is alternating between I/O Enable, Reel Drive and Watchdog
Is there anyway to bypass this alert system? Whats a 'watchdog'? there is a port next to the 7-segs labelled 'Black Box'
Whats a black box? lol
I understand I/O enable is probably flashing because all the switches and harness are disconnected at the moment. but I think the main problem is this REEL DRIVE fault. it would help me greatly if anyone could 'nudge' me in the right direction lol thanks

Hello everyone lol. As a new member I thought Id stop by and say hi.
I have relatively low hours on fruit emulators but looking at this site I think I may just get hooked. But my main reason for joining is because I have a real machine I'm having a headache with and with any luck may get some sound advice on here.

So back to me .. I'm 35 , live in Mansfield in Nottinghamshire. I work in a petrol garage and I'm a singleton

I've owned a fruit machine in the past when I was younger and really wish I'd understood the true value of them at the time (I broke it into pieces and junked most of it - and it was working perfectly at the time:arghh: ) It was necessary because I was moving house and couldn't take it with me. The machine was a Crown Jester I bought from an arcade in Skegness when I lived there for a while.

Anyway thats me so, again, Hello all
