DO NOT cross-mix these harnesses between hopper types. With all the different coin hopper types American has used- each hopper type has it’s own harness and plate. Move parts around to isolate problem if possible. If a hopper isn’t paying out it can be dirty/jammed, worn/damaged hopper, wire harness leading out to hopper, or main logic board. The next step would be to disassemble hopper and affect repairs – not covered here. If you suspect something is jamming coin hopper empty all coins and inspect what came out. Make sure NOTHING goes into coin hoppers that ISN’T the coin type you’re using. The coin hoppers used in ACC are prone to dirt and wear issues. In older machines with “red number” logic board or older yet “mechanical counter” logic board all errors must be coin hopper, wire harness for hopper, or logic board related. Only in a newer 24v MDB machine (lcd display w/green backround), can a bill acceptor be the cause of an error message. If you think there is ANY question about being empty add enough coins to get at least 1″ above all the black plastic in the lower area of the hopper.Īmerican Changer- (see DOWNLOADS for technical information) In Century series machines- the electronic “empty circuits” used in the coin hoppers can be rather tricky to deal with. If bill moves “jerky” or gets stuck you’ve got at least a belt problem. It should move smoothly from front to back.
#HOPPER DISASSEMBLER CHANGE CODE SOFTWARE#
Is your software good for current bills? (software is in CCC) Watch a bills movement through the transport. The first section of wire harness that plugs into side of acceptor is also prone to damage from physical handling. Numerous rejects in BA50 transport- usually worn parts in BA50. Move the “questionable” hopper to another position to see how it preforms there, and move a “good” hopper to the questionable position to test motor and electrics.
Empty hoppers and refill with clean, straight coins to retry. Could also be faulty hopper motor, or electrics before the hopper motor.
#HOPPER DISASSEMBLER CHANGE CODE FULL#
One hopper stays full, and other goes empty- Most of the time this is the full hopper being dirty or jammed. On rare occasion, this may also be caused by faulty CCC. Can also be dim coin LED and/or coin detector. It is rare when there is a simple / sure answer to many issues.ĮXTRA COIN error – usually this is a hopper motor going bad (brake assy.). This also means that many parts can be suspects in a problem. This means that many different pieces work together to do any one action. There is a lot of “integration” in a Rowe machine.

Rowe machines- (see DOWNLOADS for manuals and error codes) (second reset is on the end of a controller).īuilt-up dirt in Hamilton hoppers can cause a lot of strange problems. On older controllers be sure to push BOTH reset buttons to get green light back on. Does the stacker “push plate” smoothly go thru a complete up/down cycle ?Ĭ2000 controllers remember the last error- even after being turned OFF and ON. It can also be controller or wire harness between the two. If the controller is giving a bill stacker error the problem most likely is the bill stacker. DO NOT place fingers in bowl area with motor on.
Now you can see what is going on in the coin bowl. (This may create an error with a newer controller.) To get a better idea of what’s going on in the hopper, remove metal cover and upper plastic baffle.
#HOPPER DISASSEMBLER CHANGE CODE MANUAL#
Are there enough coins in hopper? Use hopper manual run switch to test if hopper will in fact pay out coins. The problem can also be controller itself or the wire harness in between the two. If the controller is giving a coin hopper error the problem is probably the hopper. It’s very rare for the bill acceptor to be the cause of a controller error. Hamilton – (see DOWNLOADS for manuals error code charts) Once you come to a conclusion of what part you need, or what assembly you need serviced we’d love to help you out! Call during normal business hours to order parts, or arrange repair services.
#HOPPER DISASSEMBLER CHANGE CODE INSTALL#
Repeatedly resetting machine without addressing the problem does no good for anything.ĭon’t install or remove parts with the power ON. This will encourage coins to lock together and jam. If you have multiple similar change machines units switch parts around one at a time to isolate the problem piece if you are unsure.ĭO NOT shake-down quarters to get more in hopper. Locate and tape to the inside of your machine the ‘error code’ definitions for your machine. If you’re going to try and service your own change machine here are some things to keep in mind for any machine:
