Need general help with igt triple stars
« on: December 15, 2025, 05:40:24 pm »
Need some general help on diagnosing this game. Always played good, now it won’t turn on at all. Need some general help and direction. The battery is at 2.85vdc and I don’t know if that’s the problem or where to check for voltages on power supply etc…I don’t work on slot machines much and I don’t have the clear chips for this if it is the battery. I can easily solder in a new battery. I mostly work on arcade games, pinball machines. Pics of the game for reference. The top never lite up. Just played regular and it would print tickets but not accept them. Just want to put cash in so people can play it, like it was before it died. Any general help is appreciated.

New battery would be a good place to start.  I don't see any pics.


This needs moved to IGT S2000 section.

Are any LED's on on the MPU? If not, it sounds like the power supply behind the reels is bad.

A dead battery won't stop it from turning on.

You should replace that battery and you won't need to clear or anything to get it back up and running.

I like the 300.  I used to have the 2 player version Top Score. Which game is the other pinball?  I have many EMs.

Thanks no lights, and power supply is making funny sound. And idea where to pick one up, and general price?

Thanks everyone so so much. Appreciate all the help! As far as pinballs only have like 5-6 em’s. The Williams system 11 mid to late 80’s are my favorite.
