I am really new to this and have recently picked up a Cavalier USS64-8.  I know how to adjust the prices, but the machine has not made change for some time now and will only work when set for 10 cents.  This machine was in my dads store until recently.

I guess I am looking for someone that can repair the coin mech that I have or has one that they will sell.

Help please.

Thanks,

I should have mentioned before very very cool site and thank you in advance.

The model number is FPB 9800 the brand has been wore off.  Above though it mentions the following and I am guessing these are the compatible Models?:
Vendo - 97AA2410AA
Coinco S-75-9800 - is this what i have?
National rejectors - 08 52 007 type B
                           08 50 107 type B
                           08 56 007 type B



Thank you again.

Spider,
Bet you have a Coinco 9800 but will wait for the experts to make that call. A picture would clear the issue up in a jiffy. The mech could just be dirty. Have you tried cleaning the coin paths with a little bit of hot soapy water? Unplug the machine first :-)

I checked the internet for the coinco 9800 and that is what I have.  I never realized that there was a seperate number for the coin mech.  I found some coin mechs on ebay for $40.  Is that less than it would cost to fix?

I have not cleaned it yet, but I now that it also has some electrical problems as it will not issue change, not even manually.

Spider - you can also use MARS 5800's as a replacement changer.  Same 9-pin jones plug, same voltage, more flexible pricing (5 cents to over $3).  Personally I like them more but find they do look a little out of place on the older machines (ie mixing old and new).

Spider,
send a P.M. to "johnieG". He fixes and sells those coin mechs and he's a really great guy.

Most of our machines use the same model.

Good to have you in the family. '<img'>
