Well, It didn't fix it so I have taken the coin mech and controller to a local mars repairer and they may not be able to fix but at least they can recommend a new cashflow mech that will work and it will keep my bosses happy. As it is friday here definately beers this arvo...... '>

Have you tried rigging up a free play switch to test without the coin mech ? See this thread: Free Play Switch

[Skeleton Man]

Btw, what do you guys drink over there ?  Back in Tassie it was Boags or Fosters..  up here it's Moose Head or Budwieser  '>

The unit has an inbuilt free play switch so it works but I think it is configured differently... The unit is still with reapir so I can't test it no. As for beer doesn't really matter we are not fussy but as I brew my own quit enjoy a canadian blonde at the moment.... '>  '>

Hmmmmm... I might enjoy a Canadian Blonde.. mid 20's, long blonde hair...  '>

I know a few others from the other side of the world that brew their own as well... must be a thing down under?

Yes.. a lot of us ozzies brew our own..  I don't mind homebrew either  '>

Well just got the word from the tech, our coin mech is dead '> and they stopped making parts about 15 years ago for it '>  '>  so i will put it back together and test all conections then put one in I have from home and hopefully it doen't ruin it then buy one somewhere off ebay.. I read eailer on that a coinco S75-9800 is the way to go? but my worry is the extra control circuitry with this unit as so weather it will work but only one way to find out...will get you guys know and thanks for the help so far.....

If you plan to keep a bucket of USA coins above your machine, then sure the S75-9800 will work.

The S75-9800 is probably the most common mech in older machines, but doesn't work with australian currency and cannot be reprogrammed.

I don't know what the extra circuitry is for, but any 110V mech with a jones connector should work just fine (so your spare mech from home should work).

CoinCo made the old Global 2 (ALD-F707) mech like I mentioned before, but you'd have to find it second hand as they are no longer produced.

However, there is the newer Quantum mech (ALQ-F707) which is probably still available and should work for you. I don't know what if anything is available from Mars, as their site/product list is a little less intuitive.
