By the way, since the coin country (US, UK, etc.) displays on the top row, if that's not changing it does seem to suggest that the problem might be with the credit switch itself.  If you just turn the machine on and press it, does it play any noise or anything?  Might be nice if that was the problem, since it's probably fairly cheap to replace.  Odd that it would work before reset and not now, though.  Good luck, in any case.</p></blockquote><p></p>
