I have a Bally Black and White, i took the top marquee glass out and set it on top of the open door( wire's were connected so i could not set off to the side) to change bulb and starter and i bumped it and it touch one of the reals and now i have 7.2 erreor showing where the credits should be. I tryed the reset button, and also turning it off and waiting a few min, still no go. Any suggestions on how to clear it? Thanks Darrell

72 error is a reel error I think. Sounds like you need to do a saferam clear. What model Bally slot is it? I can give you the procedure for an S5500 Proslot.

Yes it is the S5500 Proslot, any help would be great. 7.2 is the 2nd reel but i just cannot get it to reset. Thanks Again Darrell

Ok, from what I understand, some S5500 machines require a RAM clear chip or chips to perform a saferam clear. Mine do not require this, and I hope yours don't either. If you do require clear chips, I can give you the procedure, but getting the chips is up to you. Here is the procedure for machines that don't require clear chips.

There are three types of saferam clear, complete, full, and partial. Complete resets all game meters to zero and sets game options to factory default settings. Full is similar to complete, except that not all bookkeeping meters are cleared. Partial resets electronic bookkeeping meters only, some bookkeeping meters and game options are not affected. I would try the partial first, then a full if that doesn't work, then a complete if that doesn't work.

Here's the procedure:

1. Turn the power off.
2. Open the front door, unlock and remove the MPU board, and move the SAFERAM CLEAR jumper at JW10 to the enable position. On my machine the MPU board slides out and the JW10 jumper location is in the lower right portion of the pcb. The enable position is with a jumper connecting the two pins.
3. Slide the MPU board back into place making sure that the back plugs are firmly seated.

Partial Clear
4. Power up the machine.
5. The message CH P will display on the Win LED. If the clear procedure has been successful, the CH P will be followed by the message CL P on the Win LED. At the same time, the game lights will blink. This is a self check indicating that the clear procedure has been successful. If an error is detected, the CL P will be replaced with E P.
6. If no error was detected, turn the power off, remove the MPU board, move the JW10 jumper to the inactive position (only on one pin), slide the MPU back into place and turn the power on.

Full clear
4. Press and hold the pseudo coin button on the front of the MPU and power up the machine.
5. When the message CH F displays on the Win LED, release the pseudo coin button. If the clear procedure has been successful, the CH F will be followed by the message CL F on the Win LED. At the same time, the game lights will blink. This is a self check indicating that the clear procedure has been successful. If an error is detected, the CL F will be replaced with E F.
6. If no error was detected, turn the power off, remove the MPU board, move the JW10 jumper to the inactive position (only on one pin), slide the MPU back into place and turn the power on.

Complete clear
4. Simultaneouly press and hold the pseudo coin and the Test buttons on the front of the MPU and power up the machine.
5. When the message CH C displays on the Win LED, release the pseudo coin and test buttons. If the clear procedure has been successful, the CH C will be followed by the message CL C on the Win LED. At the same time, the game lights will blink. This is a self check indicating that the clear procedure has been successful. If an error is detected, the CL C will be replaced with E C.
6. If no error was detected, turn the power off, remove the MPU board, move the JW10 jumper to the inactive position (only on one pin), slide the MPU back into place and turn the power on.

Hope this works for you. Let me know how it turns out. I have several manuals for the proslot S5500 if you would like a copy PM me your email and I will forward a pdf.

Hey, Coinopguy thanks it was not to hard to get it up and going. I had to shut it down, open the door restart, hit reset, then shut the door and then the reels turned and must have re set. I could have sworn i did it that way before and it did not work. Who knows, old age i guess. But all is well Thanks Darrell WOW 100 POSTS TODAY AFTER 1 year and 5 months. hahaha
