hi guys, wonder if anyone can help me? when i turn my fruit machine on and put the credits in, the reels are fine for about 10-20 turns, then the 2nd reel starts to stick. i open it up[front opener] and there is a little red light behind all 3 reels..the 1st and 3rd reel lights are on but the 2nd reel light aint..when i touch the 2nd reel very slightly the light comes on then its fine again for another 10 -20 turns, i've tried the reel test and it says that there aint no faults. can any of you guys help? thanks for your time and effort....lisa wake

hello

double check that it isn't something stupid like a bulb hoder on the reels isn't hitting the reel or that the wiring at the base of the reel isn't catching the reel as well.

it could be something like that because these reels are very reliable.

if it looks like there is absolutly nothing hitting the reel you can double check the wiring by swapping the faulty reel with reel 3 (unplug the reels on the little board at the back with the machine switched off and remember which ones you swapped)just follow the wires to the board so you know which reel is plugged into which plug.

if reel 2 still goes faulty then you either have a faulty reel interface board or the wiring has become faulty,if the reel that you moved into the different position has carried on with the fault then you know its definatly the reel at fault.
