Very nearly there but there are two problems that i cant seem to get over (maybe its just me) the video shows that when the mech is back inside the cabinet, the arm does not go down enough to push down the white roller and cycle it, dont know what i am doing wrong there, as vid shows i push down manually and can cycle it. It does push the coin in to coin spinner when done manually, i did it a few times

The other big problem is that when it cycles the reels dont move, the video shows that as well

So close but so far

Oliver Good Going almost done!! Remove the frame around the reels and watch the kicker head located between the escalator and the reel plates. The kicker latches onto the serated edges and pulls down on them spinning the reels. May be a broken spring or needs lubing on the kicker head pivot. From the video looks like the kicker head is not grabbing the reel plates. Jim
