I picked up the machine at the weekend the mother board was well and truly knacked by Battery damage, after reading everybody's problems with the Impulse/Maygay Machines I ordered the spares replacement pack off of ebay, this arrived this morning.
I have fitted the Roms and security chip in replacement MPU (I didnt change the Boot Chip as they are both U10 BOOT V6), I also changed the power supply, I switched the machine on and all seamed to be OK with the bootup, All 5 reels started spinning it lined up the Impulse symbols on the payline then a really loud alarm went off and the display said Reel 4 Error 2.4. I switched off the machine, took out and checked reels 4 and 5 (as I don't know which one is which since they're not labelled) both look OK no bad connections. I swapped the connectors for Reels 4 and 5 on the reel control board powered it up again and got the same Reel 4 error 2.4, for good measure I powered off the machine put the connectors back on their right connectors and the swapped the reels 4 and 5 over and got the same fault. Powered down again, swapped the 6 reel control board put the Reels in the correct place connected it up again and still got Reel Error 2.4
Any ideas anyone??
Also if anyone can tell me how to turn the alarm down I'm sure the neighbours will appreciate it
Thanks in advance
Alan
