Title: Choice vend ecb(c) 9-72

I just bought one of these. It is a Pepsi machine. It gets nice and cold, but does not vend properly. I think it has a bad solenoid. Are there parts availabe, or am I stuck? I guess I could make it so the sodas just rolled down the ramp without vending, but what fun is that?

Welcome to the board!!
Someone should be able to help. A couple of pictures and a description of what happens when a coin is dropped always speeds things up.

When you insert a quarter it just sits in the holder. If I press the coin wires for .50 the solenoids kick and the dispenser motor runs, but when you push a button, the lever does not release.

I was reading another post regarding the CREM's. My upper one is not on. I am sure that is not the whole problem, but it is a start.

Rick start by making yourself a free-vend switch.  That was you can isolate the problem between the coin mech or the vend system.  The coin mech section has a sticky so the instructions are at the top.
