Getter Mouse Slot Machine Stuck On C7

  1. Used good condition great working electrocoin (getter mouse) electronic slot machine. 32 inches high, 18 1/2 inches wide, 12 inches front to back. Comes with tokens. Slot machine lights up and plays m.
  2. Method 1: Check Mouse Settings. Before you try other solutions, it is wise to rule out the issues with your mouse. The best option is to try another mouse. If your mouse pointer works smoothly with the other mouse, it is certainly a problem with your mouse hardware or mouse driver. To uninstall and reinstall the mouse driver, follow these steps.

When your machine has a problem, it indicates it with an error message. Error codes are the following: E-0/ (CE/CJ) A token slot is jammed. Push the button at the token slot. E-1/ (HE/ HJ) A hopper is jammed. Turn off your machine, remove the hopper and take out all the tokens. E-2/ (HE/ HJ) Hopper dysfunction. Check the hopper. E-3/ (HE/ HJ) A hopper is.

A few months ago, my Apple wireless mouse (not Mighty Mouse) was dropped. After that, I could no longer open the back to change the batteries. The reason is that there is a long piece of thin metal that connects to the lever you push to open the back (it's under the panel that comes off). If this metal becomes dislodged from the two little nubs that hold it in place near the laser opening, the back of the mouse cannot open. I tried everything I could to shove this metal into place, using the opening around the laser, but nothing worked. The batteries died and my mouse was unusable.
Because I liked the original wireless mouse model better than the mighty mouse I had to purchase to replace the dropped mouse, I recently obtained a used wireless mouse. When I opened its box today, I found that it has the same problem: the back cannot open because the metal bar is also dislodged!
Has anyone had this problem? Is there a fix? With two mice having the same problem now, I need to find a solution. So far my attempts to shove the piece back in place using a pin have not worked--you have to line up both nubs and that's incredibly difficult! If there was another way to open the mouse, a fix might be possible. Any advice?

Initial Inspection

Since I already played the Taco Slot the day before, I spent some time cleaning the machine before actually playing it. It had the same hopper empty error on the front. There were no pieces missing and no serious scratches or nicks. The machine was a bit dirty but that's to be expected.

Getter

The first thing I did was to remove the lock and pull out the tumblers. This allowed me to reset the machine at will since I didn't have a legitimate key.

Fixing What's Broken

I need to replace several light bulbs that are blown out. Initially I thought that the bulbs were permanently attached to the socket. I was worried that I'd have to order from a slot distributor for the rest of the machines life. Fortunately I found out that the bulbs do actually come out and that they have a wedge shaped base. I saw these bulbs at Wal Mart recently so I'll hopefully be able to replace all of the blown bulbs soon.

This is a wedge light and the re-usable socket.

Other than the bulbs, I need to get some tokens and a manual. I wanted to put quarters in the machine but tokens are only 10 cents each as opposed to the 25 cent quarter. I know that quarters retain their value but I worry about the quarters getting pilfered here and there for sodas or something like that.

This machine has been played roughly 5.8 million times and still looks brand new!

Cleaning The Coin Hopper

This slot machine only worked when I switched coin hoppers with the other one. Since I already disassembled and cleaned the working coin hopper, I hoped that cleaning this one might fix the problem. I obviously had a bad hopper because it caused both machines to report a hopper error when inserted.

The hopper isn't very sophisticate and doesn't have any hard to assemble parts. I disassembled it with a phillips screwdriver and a socket wrench. I removed all connectors, printed circuit boards and wires from the major plastic pieces. The plastic went into the dishwasher and came out very clean.
