I've encountered a situation with my Seaga HYC950 vending machine and am seeking expert advice. I am trying to sell this machine, but I'm confronted with several problems that have me scratching my head. Here's the rundown: slots A1, A3, and A5 are not working as they should. Customers are prompted to make a different selection whenever they attempt a purchase. The same goes for B1, C1, and D1, albeit with a twist. These slots allow one successful selection, but additional attempts receive the same alternative selection prompt. Digging into the error messages, I discovered overcurrent errors for A1, B1, C1, and D1. Oddly enough, A3 and A5, despite their similar issues, do not show overcurrent errors. Based on these symptoms, I suspect the motherboard might be the source of the troubles, but it's just an educated guess. There's another confusing aspect of this issue. After clearing the errors, the 'test vend' option does operate the motors correctly without any overcurrent indication. The overcurrent error only appears when an actual purchase attempt is made. The machine is currently located at a site with a custom wrap tailored to the location. If possible, I want to avoid removing it, so I've been contemplating whether to repair it. I've already reached out to Seaga support. They provided a quote of $750 for a motherboard replacement, which isn't a small amount, particularly as I'm trying to sell the machine. So, I turn to the experienced individuals in this community - what's your advice? Is it worth investing in the motherboard replacement, or should I sell it as-is, ensuring prospective buyers are fully aware of the existing issues? Your input and guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much for your time and expertise!

I'm giving this machine to my kids to manage and help service in hopes that they learn something about the value of a dollar and hardwork
