Title: coin counter reset?
Post by: coachcarstens on December 04, 2004, 11:12:33 am

I recent bought a cab, and I would like to "reset" the coin counter to all 0's How do I go about doing this?  I have disconnected the counter box and I don't see any way to take it apart/do anything to it.  Any help would be wonderful.

Thank you,

Chris

The coin counting meters provided in coin operated games are not repairable nor are they resetable. However, all is not lost. If you contact the meter manufacturer and give them ALL of the part/model numbers/voltages off your existing meter they (all coin meter manufacturers) make the same thing in a resetable version for only a couple of bucks more than your existing model cost. Coin meters typically cost around $5 to $10 depending on make/model and which distributor you buy them from.

Thanks for the tip.  after 2-3 hours, i was able to take it apart, put it back together (4-5 times)  ;D and I was able to reset!

Thanks,
