ah , thats better! yeah, Irecognize that mech ( I call it a shorty or half/mech) as for the brass-rivet....what's the "nu" block?

      We call it a Junction box and you can drill the rivet out, you won't need it
when you re-install with a screw through it into the base.

O.K., now I have the "use correct change only" light working.

I also can make it vend by flipping the micro switch without the actual changer installed. I can't get any money to be counted though. I have looked at the mech really closely and I don't see how a dime or nickel would ever go through the actual micro switch.

Is there an a picture or a manual I can get that will show a complete break down of the change mech? I am assuming that this a nickel only mech, I see no way of setting it.

Is the crem solenoid supossed engauge as soon as you plug it in? Mine does not do anything. Are these dudes still available?
