Title: V56 square top
Post by: DrDragon on August 08, 2009, 11:04:40 am
My machine was working for a few days and now will not vend. I put coins in and they go straight to the coin collector box. No noise. I unplugged the coin mech and nothing will release to vend. I put in another coin mech and I get the same thing. Wires all look good.

When I asked the same question it was suggested by wiser men then me that I should check or replace the vend solenoid.

I changed the solenoid and the coin changer. No help. Monday I'll order a new solenoid. Till then I'll go through the wiring. Couldn't hurt to rewire the whole thing. I should have, to begin with.
