executivevending Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Hey guys I got a soda machine last week and having a problem. If you put a dollar in it and get something for 50 cents it wont return the change. Needing some help if you could please. I tried dispensing quarters myself but it wont even do that. It will for dimes and nickels tho. Also my cans keep jamming up idk why. Not always but it has twice for 2 different selections. Any advice would be great! Thanks! First post too haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moondog Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 The quarter tube ejector at the bottom is stuck - you might have a sticky quarter down there, the mechanism itself is gummed up or it's time to swap out that mech. Start by emptying out the mech and checking for sticky coins then clean the ejector with rubbing alcohol (from the bottom). If this doesn't work it's time to swap it out. Vendos have a number of different shims required relative to what you're trying to vend - wrong shim = jammed cans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
executivevending Posted December 17, 2012 Author Share Posted December 17, 2012 Yeah i got that swapped out because it was still under warranty. And how do you know which shim it goes on? It's for mtn dew cans 12oz. Have it happening to a couple slots all for 12oz cans. First machine so i'm new to this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moondog Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 I don't have a 540 but I do have a few 511 univendors. I think what you're looking for is a shim with the 2 white spacer clips in the middle.
