will im new to the soda machine stuff, more in to slot machines, but i got this
coke machine and now i think the soda bug has bitten me, this machine works great
except for the coin mech mars 5800 it wont take any coins, so i found the coil that
trips the buttons and put free vend in, here are some pics of the machine
dont mine the pepsi and mountin dew in the coke machine,  :biggrin: what would be the value
of this type of machine,
i also need the plastic flap door as you can see in pic its broke, also the chrome door parts

Welcome to the board!  Yes, this is a very addicting hobby!  That will likely be your first of several.  You will find a fantastic group of folks here that really enjoy soda machines and enjoy helping others just as much.  I'm sure you will find help with anything you need for your machine...just ask!

welcome to the site!
The sold out bulbs are standard C7/night light lamps, 4 to 7 watt/120 volt, or you could use the original 7watt 120 volt S6 style /indicator lamps ( from Lowes in the lightbulb isle in the pull-out bin section).

I have a delivery flap I belive in my parts boxes, & which chrome pieces do you need? the whole delivery chute? & is yours chrome plated plastic or plated metal? ( I have a metal one in good shape too)

i need the chrome ones, whats the cost of the parts ??? i also need to know if the mars 6200
coin mech will work with this machine or if anyone has any ideas  on whats wrong with mine,
it has power because when you hit the switches, you can get it to drop quarters, dimes and nickels, may be my dip switches are set wrong ???  im using a mars 5800 now,

Please double-check which type you have, By "chrome" I assume you meant the heavy metal ones, not the plastic/chrome plated ones, there is a difference between the two types of delivery chutes ( the way the mount into the machines front door) it's yours for the cost of shipping.  send me an email by clicking on the little envelope symbol under my profile ID. & send me your mailing address then.

the 6200 coinmech should be fine, so long as it has the "Jones" connector has 8-pins ( you dont count the round index pin) & its rated for 120 volts. as for the 5800 coinmech, if it has an electronic coin detector/slug rejector (called the flight-deck) it may just need to be recalibrated to accept the correct coins. you can find the correct switch settings & the recalibration procedure at the MARS website.

That's not bad.... Less than a week and you have two machines...
Well, you can't be a collector until you have at least tow of something...
Welcome to the addiction...

You might want to have a search of the archives re your coin mech... I recall something similar being posted..
