I have rock-ola ccc5 and would like to set it up to free vend. Does anybody know how to this? Or where can I look for some info. Also looking for a Service manual.
Thanks

Does it use a 9 pin "jones" plug (rectangular black plug) to connect the coin mech ?

Yes the plug has 9 pins. 8 flat pins and 1 round pin. The plug goes from the coin mech to a square box attached to the door. Hopefully this will help.
Thanks

Thanks Skeleton Man,
I rigged up the machine per the diagram and nothing vends, but I do hear some clicking inside of the box where the jones cable would plug into. Do you have any ideas what I could try next, or is there some test I can do to see what is wrong?
Thanks

Thanks | hmmm...I'm assuming that the machine is full enough to vend, most rock-olas have a minimum level of about 6 cans per rack/column...ie; the empty switches are "off" '>

Spoon-feeding Newbies since 2001... Yeah..220,221 whatever it takes. Remember, all it needs is a shot of Freon! The Vendo V-83 is the '59 Edsel of the coke machine world. ;p Spray painting does NOT restore a compressor 11 is louder than 10... "Hope" is good, but it's not an action plan.

I dunno about that particular machine, but on mine if it's "sold out", the vend relay clicks twice.. (ie. credit locks in, then back out again)...
When it has something to vend, the relay clicks once (credit locks in), and then stays locked in untill you make a selection.. (after which it clicks back out)

OK I filled the machine up and still nothing. Hear it click ounce and puch a selection nothing and then clicks again in about 10-15 seconds later. Is it possible that the relay in the box is shot?
Thanks

It's probably designed to hold the credit for 10 - 15 seconds only.. (instead of indefinately)
If the relay clicks it wouldn't be shot.. I would check the wiring to the vend mechanism/selection buttons.. something could be loose or broken..

OK I got to vend, but I have to puch the free vend button and the selection button at the same time. What does this tell me?
Thanks
