Cornelius Type 120 Coin mech missing Free vend Questions.

[Deacon]

Ok Guys,
      I have looked at the LONG thread about free vend but I guess my Machine being a newer one
or maybe because of the brand.  Isn't wired the same.  I don't have anything attached to pin 1. 
I  Have taken apart the Box that the Plug is mounted on and found a three prong molex plug tied to the
wiring of the Jones plug.  Two of the Pins on that are HOT and one seems to be a neutral.  If I jumper Pin 8
to Pin 6 I hear the Vending Solenoid click.  but no vend when I select a flavor.  So Then I figured that maybe someone
wired the Whole plug backwards and tried jumpering pin 2 and 6 together and the switch between 6 and 8 no joy.

I must be doing something wrong does anyone know how to make this work.

Cornelius went their own way at times. Any chance you can post pics?

Here are the Photos of the Wiring and a picture of the out side.

ok I found this schematic listed for a different model Cornelius then Mine
But I think The Wiring to the jones plug is the same as mine.  So What Wires Do I need to
Connect Together To Allow For Free Vending

1 & 3 , same as the free play switch diagram, I read your earlier posts & I believe you read the pinout backwards on your machine, the wiring diagram you've shown is correct, it's just pins 1 & 3.

pay attestation to the sold out switches & any carrier/vend ready ("vend-in-progress" switches in your case) switches on the rack. some machines required a minimum number of cans/bottle to be loaded into all of the selection columns before it would accept any coins or allow the selection buttons to activated.

Thank you so much for the info going to go pick up more sodas and try wiring it to pins 1 & 3  and see what happens tomorrow.

Wish me luck boys.

I just want to say good luck. We're all counting on you.

OK Maybe partial success.  I am hearing a click from the Credit relay under the jones plug.
however.  I am not getting a vend.  I am wondering if it is because I am missing one
of the vend relays.  for slot number 5.   I am wondering if the relays might be wired in
series.  I would think that would be a stupid way to do it but I can't rule it out yet.  
Hoping that I am wrong.  By The way my local electronics store doesn't seem to have
this relay it is a Potter & Brumfield KU-4366.  Does anyone have an extra one that they can
sell me.

You should be able to get that relay from grainger.com. If you aren't trying to keep it original- I would just wire in a universal relay. You should be able to find a relay socket with "pigtails" that you could butt-splice in place.

Just to make sure, do you have enough product in the column you are selecting to ensure that the sold out paddles are de-activated?
