Hi guys, so I get the error universal hopper missing or jammed on the psycho cash beast club now its been updated to £1000 jackpot, would anybody know if this can be bypassed? or what needs to be done to correct it.

The hopper in there at the moment is small, wouldn't hold much more than £400 at a push, don't know if this error can be bypassed somehow or if somethings dirty or whatever, or even if i need to rearrange the payout shelf to fit another hopper on there

 

any information would be of great help :) so close to having this as a working £1000 jackpot machine

I would imagine it's tryin to find a big old hopper but can't. There isn't normally a bypass as they have their own hopper id.

You do need to make sure you get the right type though...

How do you mean right type? I thought it was just £1 coins it needed to accept? or is there more to it?

i've looked into it a bit and seen written around places mk4 type was used in clobbers previously, and mk2 was for change machines

Yep as long as you need the 24 volt, parallel type then you should have no problems.

Type of coin won't be a problem in a universal hopper - they are designed to accept any coin. That's the great thing about them!

My guess is that as they are new to eBay they don't recognise the potential folly of offering a 99p item with free postage!

unrelated reason, basically i wanted to refund a buyer, but the money was on hold in paypal and as it was on hold there wasn't the option to refund. As this happened they weren't then willing to refund the final value fee, despite the item not actually having sold (it was a £300 item, £30 final value fee for an item which didn't sell) you can see why I refuse to pay it, £30 isn't exactly pennies.

 

anyway, i'll buy from a reputable place instead unless anyone can put me in contact with the seller?
