tombstone Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 Hello! I have recently purchased a used Coinco CT48 for home use and am trying to sort through an issue I'm having. When I purchased the unit it did not have the coin mechanism and the vending solenoid was disconnected. The previous owner would simply pull open a door when he wanted a beverage. I found a Coinco S75-9800B and installed it as well as connect the vending solenoid. When you put the correct amount of change in you can hear the servo activate and are able to make your selection. The problem is that it doesn't seem to relock and you can continue to open and close the door. I wanted to see if anybody with more experience with this vending machines has any insight as to what may be wrong and how I can correct it. Thanks!

lacanteen Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 I'm thinking you might be missing a spring. It's been a decade or 2 since I was in one of those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tombstone Posted May 23, 2016 Author Share Posted May 23, 2016 It seems to occur no matter what door is opened. Would there be a "master" spring to pull the rods/interlock back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lacanteen Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 I only remember that there was a little lever to the right of the right most door. If you wanted a free vend, you cracked the door open, and pushed that lever for one vend, it moved and clicked in place, then returned after the vend. I think it was spring loaded in some way.

Walta Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 The problems with CT48 almost always come down to a leaky soda gummed up the plastic doors and levers, and then someone forces a door open and the plastic parts crack. I say take lots of photos and completely disassemble the doors and levers, wash each part one at a time. Replace the damaged parts and assemble. By the time you are done you will understand the function of each part. Walta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tombstone Posted May 24, 2016 Author Share Posted May 24, 2016 I took a closer look at things and one obvious issue is that the black lever on the seloniod is broken. Apparently the seloniod was doing nothing. Does anybody have one laying around? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tombstone Posted May 24, 2016 Author Share Posted May 24, 2016 Thanks! I found one last night and ordered it. My manual refers to a plastic catch when reinstalling the seloniod. If I'm looking at the correct part I don't have that. Mine appears metal. Is something missing? I also tried to manually move the black bar that the seloniod level looks like it would move but was unable to open doors 2 or 3. It looks like the spring for the can stop has been disconnected so it doesn't return to is standby position. Would that cause the slide rod or lock out rod to engage?

rmorris195301 Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Could be gummed up with syrup. There isn't a spring that I can remember. Sent from my SM-N920P using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tombstone Posted May 24, 2016 Author Share Posted May 24, 2016 Does anybody have picture of the left side of the can rack. I'm trying to get a look at the silver rod that protrudes by can door 1. Mine looks like it needs tweaked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
