I was able to get the coin mech set and all was working great.  Then it quit working and has a constant "hum" to it, as if a solenoid/relay is constantly active.  I pulled the slug rejector and turned back on to find that was in fact the case.  The picture shows the "relay" that is going hot as soon as main power is turned on.  Guessing is the vend relay/switch since that's really what was activated when it last worked??  Just seems a contact somewhere got stuck.  Can anyone provide any recommendations on how to resolve this situation?  Any info provided would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

it was working just fine before I changed the price on it.  Guess I need to try changing it back to see if it makes a difference.
