Title: NARC Coin op won't work
Post by: Bayne666 on May 28, 2014, 08:32:41 am

I cant seem to get the coin op for my NARC cab to work. any ideas?

It won't register any coins when inserted. It says on the screen insert 1 DM/5 DM (which I assume is Deutsche Mark) but in the fron of the coinop it says to put in 5 or 10 Norwegian Kroner (I live in Norway, and I would like to have the cab take NOK)

There's some wires "unplugged" but I have no idea where they go..

I did find this "wire" that registers credits but only at random it seems and then 6 whole credits 0.o

Any ideas?

Do I have to get a whole new one?

Was this a really stupid question?

Not a stupid question.  Though you may have better luck over at KLOV.

Can you get into your game adjustment menu?  You may have to change the credit settings.  And, without seeing the schematic or insides up-close, I'm assuming there needs to be one wire going to the ground and one to NO on the switch for the coin drop.  But the game's still looking for DM so that will only help so much without switching it.  (That's my limited-experience, half-assed answer unfortunately.)

A manual would be helpful:

ya it explains it in the manual link pg14-16
also if u want to swing it from 1 councery to another u MUST change the coin accpeter
i did in your frist pic see yellow and black hooked to the coin switch..this is a normal no/nc/grnd config.
u can swing the coin s/w manual to test it

Check the dip switches to make sure that it's set for one coin=one credit.
