Hi Guy,

I will look for the Manual/Paperwork on the Miss Bowling and let you know what the error code E602 means. Email me on any other questions

about the game. I had 9 Miss Bowling bingo's and still have a lot of parts left.

Great(ELECTRONIC) bingo game.

HI!!

 BAD news I'm afraid.. These wimi bingo's were fabricated here in Belgium and used as a sort of "jackpots" although it was and is still  prohibited some bars and café's did and do "pay-out " the winnings...As sometimes big money was/is  involved there are a lot of safety circuits on these machines. Complicated codes are in a ram, and the "hold" circuit of this safety ram is in series with a lot of security contacts.. When you open the door for example or the backglass the ram is erased...code E602... The only way to get the ram loaded again is a special print with eprom and circuitry to plug in at connector J709 and a certain number of handlings to perform.. The first buyer of such a wimi bingo is mostly an exploiter of several machines in bars and cafés.. so he has "the key" the special print ... every client of Wimi's has his own key, so no exchanges between clients could be made...( smart) As buisenis was going down last years

in bingo's a lot of these machines came on the market, but the exploiter kept the key for the machines he still had running... And at the first occasion the new owner opend the front door the ram was resetted and the bingo "out of buisseniss" E602...The only way to start it up again is to find the owner of the original " key"...Up to now i tried a few "tricks" but without success..stopped my experiments because "to much time "consumend... I general this bingo's end up in garages and shacks after the new owner called and asked around for a solution that he did not found...The day i cracked this one perhaps I will not publish it on my website......... , i will have a lot of clients " waiting"....  sorry  Leon .from

In our site, http://www.tilt.it, there's a section

(http://www.tilt.it/chilhavisto.htm) about rare and strange machines, usually from a local production.

At the moment, we're looking for infos about a bingo, which has an italian manufacturer's name, but which I suspect was made from WIMI.

Could you please get in touch with us at st...@tilt.it, if you're interested?

(I'm not directly contacting you so in case you're not interested I

won't bother you more :-)

 

Ps: that section is open to all contirbutions.. if you who're reading

have a strange machine, something you would like to show to others, in

order to try to discover more about it, just email us!

 

Thanks,

Guy,

Here is some info on the Miss Bowling I have. My electronic bingo is a Miss Bowling Turbo, it was manufactured by a company in Belguim called G.A.A.(General Automatic Amusement)with Wimi circuit boards in the bingo machine. The EEROR CODE E602 in my manual reads EE06 THE EE06 means:valeur du RPREG ANORMALE forgot what this means in English. Could be replay register or something else.must ask someone who knows french to translate this.

Here is the correct website address for Wimi:

http://www.wimi.be/contacts.html

Here are other manufactures in Belguim with electronic bingo's:

Email me for any questions or help you may need or for phone numbers.

…Now Leon is an expert, so heed his words here, but I love how Vic is tenacious and says keep trying`

They told my buddy Larry he was in trouble too, yet he made his own controller and got his Miss Americana Triple Bonus machines working`
