The largest slot jackpot in history, $39.7 million, came on a $3 bet on a $1 denomination International Game Technology Megabucks machine at the Excalibur casino in Las Vegas in 2003. Such large jackpots are extraordinarily rare events, but any dedicated slot player occasionally collects winnings of hundreds of times the size of the bet. International Game Technology PLC, formerly Gtech S.p.A. And Lottomatica S.p.A., is a multinational gaming company that produces slot machines and other gaming technology.

I have an older IGT S-Plus Double Diamond Deluxe. Everything was working, but had machine turned off for months. Recently turned it on and got Error 12 and both lights on top flashing. Removed processor board and replaced battery, then replaced processor board. Lights still flash, and Error changed from 12 to 61. If I push self test button, machine chimes and Error changes to
61-1. I've tried the reset key (with door open and closed). but no change. In fact, the reset key seems non-functional. I do notice that the reels to not reset themselves. If I flip the off switch, it resets the Error at 61. I am a real newbe at this (I can push buttons and feed bills like an expert). I thank in advance for any assistance, but please keep in mind, I no nothing.

Everything sounds normal up until you turn the reset key. After pressing the self test button and getting the 61-1 you should close the door, turn the jackpot reset key, and wait for the startup tests to run. The reels should spin, everything should then be ready for play. The lights on top will continue to flash until you play a coin. Are you waiting long enough after turning the reset key? If the machine was running before, there's no reason to think there might be a broken wire to the reset key unless you might have pulled something loose taking the processor board out. You might try clearing the CMOS chip. Either short the processor board battery for a few seconds, or remove the CMOS chip for a few seconds and reinstall it. You may get a 66 or 67 error when you power up, just cycle power and you should get the 61 error.

Thanks for the prompt reply.
I have never had a need to use the reset key until now, so I don't know if it ever worked. When I open the door, I see no wire directly attached to the reset key.
I am also not sure where to find the CMOS chip and how to clean it.

There should be two small wires connected to the reset key switch, if they aren't there, that's probably what your problem is. Since the internal wiring of these machines is different for various models, I can't tell you exactly how they are routed in yours, but the basic function of the switch is to apply a momentary contact from J1 pin 22B on the processor board to the B ground. The wires should be coming from a connector somewhere near the reset switch that has other wires running to other parts of the machine. maybe they just broke or were somehow cut. If you want to test this, you can just run a couple of wires from the processor board up to the key switch. J1 is clearly marked on the processor board, and you should have no trouble finding pin 22B. The B ground is near the - end of the battery and is clearly marked. Good luck!

No loose or cut wires visable. Furthermore, is no apparent way to connect wires to reset key assembly.
The reset key assembly does have a downward leg attached to it that rotates 90 degrees to a horizontal position toward the front of the door. There is a horizontal part (63907900B) that is almost in contact with the leg. This horizontal part has a knurled knob attached to it that goes thru the side if door and comes out just below the reset key. If I turn the reset key (leg rotates out of the way, toward front of door), I can pull the knurled knob and the horizontal part slides toward the side of the door. If these details have nothing to do with the reset or are just confusing you, I have yet another stupid question about your work around.
I can find J1 pin 22B and BGND. Are you saying to attach a wire to each, reset the processor board into the mother board, power switch on, and then touch the two wires to the reset key assembly? The pins on J1 are pretty close toghther and the fit of the processor board to the mother board is pretty tight. Can't quite picture the two wires not getting pinched or coming loose. As you can tell, I really don't know much about this.

The reset switch is an electrical switch that uses a key to turn it. It's normally located on the external right side of the cabinet. It's most proper function is to reset a jackpot after a hand pay. Most jackpots are too big to pay out of the hopper.

Mike,
It sounds like your describing the front belly door glass release, not the reset switch?? The reset switch is normally mounted on the right side of the machine, Not in the door but above/behind where the pull handle is. Should also be a serial plate in the same area.

Thank you both. I sure appreciate your time and effort.
As soon as I used the 'real' reset key, all problems disappeared and machine is AOK.
Thanks agian.

Of course gambling is not a good habbit but cheating is the worst! But in history, many people have figured out a good couple of ways how to cheat slots. Below you will find 10 of them. Be aware, none of these methods will work online gaming sites like Slots Heaven!
10 – Cheat Code
Ronald Dale Harris was a talented software engineer who was working for the Nevada Gaming Commission. His job was to programming computer chips for slot machines. Since he was the programmer, he did left a cheat code like a signature of him. The code was activated by a specific combination of coins something like ‘’5 coins, wait, 2 coin, wait, 6 coins, etc.’’ and the machine would automatically pay out. Brilliant!
09 – Light Wand
Golden Nugget
Back in the day, when slot machines started using the optical sensor technology, Tommy Glenn Carmichael invented a light wand that could blind these small, magical sensors. It was something like battery-powered mini light attached to a wire.
08 – Fake Coins
As simple as counterfeiting. Using advanced machinery, cheaters pressed counterfeit slot machine coins out of hardened metal dies.
07 – Software Glitch
Las Vegas
Sometimes the cheat comes with the slot machine built in. The most known slot machine with its glitch was ‘’The Game King’’. To exploit the glitch, the gambler would put more money into the machine after the “double up” prompt and then switch back to the original game they were playing for $1.00. Then player would then up their stakes to the highest allotted amount and cash out.
06 –Top-bottom Joint
The top-bottom joint was a trick created by Tommy Carmichael and Ray Ming. The duo created a slider, which was made of a guitar wire and a piece of spring steel. They would snake the payout chute using the top-bottom joint until tripping the switch. Once the switch was tripped, the slot machine would empty out its payload.
05 – Computer Chip Replacement
Computer Chips
Dennis Nikrasch bought a computerized slot machine and played with it in his garage till he found a method to manipulate the computer chip inside to give him a jackpot whenever he wanted. For this purpose, he ordered the standard chips from a real manufacturer. Then he team up to obtain keys on the black market that opened slot machines. After that he would be able to open the machine to replace the chip under three minutes!
04 – Shaved Coins
As slot machine technology advanced, machine manufacturers changed optic verification sensors to prevent scams. Improved mechanisms use a beam of light to register payment as the coin dropped in. Ironically, this innovation was used against itself to perform a cheat. Shaved coins are registered by the machine but once it gets to its comparitor new mechanism which is the piece of equipment that measures the size and weight of the coin, it will be immediately kicked out because of the coins minute size discrepancy. Of course then you can use it again…
03 – Piano Wire
Igt Slot Machines Programming Codes
Piano wires
This method dates back to 1982. At the Caesars Boardwalk Regency in Atlantic City, a group of cheaters surrounded a slot machine. Each of them had a job. One of the cheaters dubbed the mechanic, pried open the front and inserted 20-inch piano wires into the slot machine’s whirring guts. The group used the piano wires to jam the clock that timed each wheel’s rotation. With the help of this method, he was able to manipulate and spin the wheels till he wins.
02 – Monkey Paw
The monkey’s paw was one of the early devices used by slot cheats. The mechanism was essentially a guitar or piano string attached to a bent metal rod. Cheater would jam it into the machine through an air vent and fish around for the switch that released the coin hopper.
01 – YO-YO
Chips
Igt Slot Machine Error Codes
The cheater ties a thin cord around a coin and then places it in the slot until it registers a payment. Then yank out the coin and do the whole process over and over again. That simple!
