Evening all, well today I picked up some more machines , glasses etc, I tho this one might jog a few memories for some ?? I haven’t even seen this type before except a Mecca members one on here..

Well with a lot of help and assistance I've finally got this old classic up and running .for such a simple tech machine it kicked up a few head scratching faults which all of which have been sorted.so I did this vid .has to be one of the first awp s from ace using the sys100 tech .I've done a 7min run down about the machine on a separate vid which I'll post the link for .but first here is the play vid .Hope its not too long .apologies if I waffle too much .just needs a batt on the mother cpu board .

Looks in Great Nick this Simon ..i have a sys85 Jokers Wild and in the back there is a test switch you can flick ..although i have never done this on mine lol Flick the test button ...... Return to the front of the machine and it should display Test 1 use the Gamble button to scroll through the tests Test 1 = Win Plan / Reel Strips Test 2 = Switch tests Test 3 = Pay slides Test 4 = Sound Test Test 5 = Lamp test Test 6 = Lockout Test Then hit the start button to select any of the above tests Cheers Stef

Here is the show around the machine vid .it's only 7mins !

Sounds like fun... is it one of the hi techs? This one has rot on the bottom plugs so I will have to crimp them and change plug type. The board looks OK (don't want to curse it lol) there are a few other spots dotted around. The PSU has had a very bad leak from one of the big caps. The fuse leads had corroded through which probably saved the mpu board from getting powered up and destroyed. (Link wire not my handy work 😅)

Hi Folks I've taken over the baton with this old girl. I just wanted to say a big thanks to Martin I'm over the moon with it. He said someone like me deserved it and did me a great deal on it which I thought was really kind. Thanks again 110% will be getting brought back to life 😎

I’ve spent a bit of time on it today and the only issue is some signs of artwork deterioration that ideally needs some kind of stabilising paint/spray or whatever to prevent it getting to a point of flaking. It’s on the bottom glass around the reels where there is no plastic laminate, the rest is fine. Anyone done anything to seal the artwork with success or is a job fraught with disaster? You have to really look to see it but it’s defo there and will, in time, get worse I’m sure. Ideas and experiences welcome from fellow restorers. Thx Here is a photo of just how clean the cab is! I put castors on and under the bottom is mint too, never been sat in the usual damp/wet garages or sheds clearly. Also a quick few minutes play here too https://youtu.be/ChsAiLm_Ak0
