So after cleaning the ultimate diamonds and 7 bally alpha the problem was that anytime within an hour the top box would start spinning backwards and would not stop, producing no error and the game would still play...
So I moved on to the Reel Warriors a 2010 alpha elite s9e. I got it up and running, but the same problem is present... this one throws the error code top box disconnected, then the top box boots up starts it calibration and then the lights light up, the machine recognizes the top box and then after 3 seconds like clockwork it starts all over again. Any suggestions?
