NRI Rejector in a Westinghouse WC102MD has no coin chute

Here's another thread that has the wiring diagram on it from a few years back for reference, its for a WC-60, but they are all the same

The only place that I can think of right now that would cause an issue is if there is something wrong with the Empty Switch normally closed (N.C.) circuit.  Your 'Make another selection' light coming on shows that the normally open (N.O.) is working fine.  

The switch is inside the main cabinet, in the center of just below where all the bottle racks are.  There should be two flat head screws you can loosen and pull the front metal cover off the whole assembly.  You will be able to access the switch and test the voltages right there to ensure that everything is working.

Thanks for all the replies tonight.  This is an official project, so I expect it will take some time to resolve.  I'll break out the DVM in the next day or so and see what I can find out.

Thanks for all the comments.  I finally got some time to work in my machine today.  After a little bit of testing and wondering why everything seemed to be backwards, I realized someone had crossed the wires on the switch that identifies when a column is empty.  Once I switched the two wires, it works like a charm.    Now on to my next project.....

And the winning related cause is...#3; sold out switch malfunction/mis-wired...

That was definitely helpful information.

So...the checks in the mail?     happy you got it fixed!

So are the CREM relays still readily available?  I have an old Vari-Price in my CS-96 that both relays are bad (literally fell apart).

CREMS ( Coin Return Eletro-Magnets for you Newbies) for old coinmechs aren't repo'd , but you can find plenty of DOA coinmechs dirt cheap on the web/caiglist, etc. just remember that if you ned one or two for oh say a "Variprice" then you need to get the same model/manufacture ( a Coinco CREM wont fit a Variprice) BUt on the bright side, they aren't reallly need for a home-use coinmech anyway when you get down to it.
