Title: Cavalier CSS-8-64 Won't Vend
Post by: Witchboard on September 26, 2009, 07:01:57 pm
Hello.  Recently my machine has stopped vending.  I do not have a coin mech installed, but removed it and replaced it with a microswitch behind the coin reject for a free vend.  I've bypassed the switch and it will still not function.  The light does not come on indicating to select a product and you don't hear the "thunk" that unlocks the gate.  Anybody got a quick fix?  :hopefull:

sounds like a burnt-out vending solenoid. or an open wire.

I presume the solenoid is located under the gate?  I'll check the wiring diagram and see what I can find out.  Thanks.
