Hi,
I've been searching the forum, and see it's recommended to connect to the jones plug for the free play with a 9800A.

Just want to see how/where you connect the wires too, in a real pic? 

Thanks.

Anyone?

Are you just pushing the switch wires into the harness,and then pushing the jones connector on?

Or are you tapping in someone else?

      I think they just push the connectors into the harness, and do
away with the entire Jones plug and coin mech.

Here's my free-vend switch I used to test the gate in my machine.  If you're wanting to use a jones plug and aren't sure which wires go where, your trusty mult-meter will be your answer.  Just ohm them out man.  biggrin

Witchboard's photo depicts an excellent view of this concept; however, for everyday use, you can utilize an encased two-wire cord routed to a momentary switch mounted somewhere accessible for operation.

      Also, by cutting the jones plug off a useless coin mech, and extending the wires and adding a momentary switch allows testing of vend columns with the door wide open.
I use this tester on every machine I get, bypassing the coin mech saves a lot of time.

Thanks,
What I want to do tho, is keep the coin mech but hide a free vend switch too.

I don't see how to do this and keep the coin mech too.

Not sure what you mean by the wires on the underside of the plug?

I guess i should take a pic of mine, to show what I have.

I think what Jim is referring to is the wires leading to the Jones plug socket.
