Hello to everyone, am new to all of this as I haven't worked on a fruit machine for over 30 years. I recently got given a Mazooma Monopoly wonders of the world machine which is running a scorpion 5 board. It is showing "Pay unit Err 17 as soon as it has initialised. I have removed the hopper unit and checked for loose connections all seem OK and the unit spins freely by hand. On the mpu all 7 led's are lit which if I understand correctly means that all voltages are being supplied. I am hoping someone may have a manual for this machine I could copy and also for any information on where/how I can start to fault find. The person I got the machine off said that it was working fine until they emptied the hopper and when they switched the machine on it started alarming.

There's either a coin stuck in the hopper or the opto's need cleaning, are my guesses.

Thanks for that Chas I have manually turned the unit with coins in it and they came out ok, where abouts are the opto's in the unit

They are small sensors 4 of them, and are postioned where the coins come out of the hopper.
They look like little black shiny black dots.
You may need to dismantle the hopper a bit to get to them.
