Todd23 Posted January 31, 2017 Author Share Posted January 31, 2017 I did just get this little German 3 flavor from a guy. It works perfect. Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todd23 Posted January 31, 2017 Author Share Posted January 31, 2017 I should do a poll to see who thinks I trash it and who thinks I try to get it going. Lol. Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZVendor Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Just wait out CL and one will pop up. I don't think that machine is from the 80's but more likely the 70's before DN became mainstream. Prior to that Vendolator, Cavalier and Rockola had the bulk of the bottler business. You might put it back on CL and try selling it to a collector instead. At least get your $50 bucks back, and then beat the snot out of the jerk that took you for the $50 to begin with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The motor should run and stop in the next notch. If that works, go to the next one , work left to right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not owning a machine I wasn't sure what the inside of one should/would even look like. So I didn't know that anything inside of this one was out of date. Not sure from what has been said if its worth pursuing. Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Todd23 Posted January 31, 2017 Author Share Posted January 31, 2017 Is this the switch lever? Apologize. I'm learning. Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lacanteen Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 That's the brake. The switch is up and to the left, with wires in the bottom and actuator levers on the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Todd23 Posted January 31, 2017 Author Share Posted January 31, 2017 If the switch lever is the one pictured, I'm not getting a response from any of the when I push it back. Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lacanteen Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Push in the direction of the arrow. If no response, you are in way over your head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todd23 Posted January 31, 2017 Author Share Posted January 31, 2017 I took a voltmeter to the wires that run to the motors. All come back hot. I wonder if I need to clean each one of those terminals and see if I may have a bad connection. Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lacanteen Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 To get power from the switch to the motor is not a direct cause and effect. The sold out paddle and selection switch systems are interlaced with the motors and CREM relay. You might try pressing the sold out paddle down for that selection & try.

Todd23 Posted February 1, 2017 Author Share Posted February 1, 2017 Holding paddles down did not do anything but from my time working on different things something seems funny in this whole scenario. If one motor or two motors didn't work I could get it. All 5 not running and I feel something in the loop is off. There's a disconnect somewhere and I need to find it.

AZVendor Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Just from the photo of your switch, the manual I posted for you won't help much because all modern DN single price models have a three switch cluster on the motor, not just one switch like you have. Unless you have a wiring diagram in the machine you won't find one in that manual and I think you're just screwed on this machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed that last night when i started going through the manual. There is one in the door that is legible. I do believe this machine must be the Last of the Mohicans. No one seems to have seen one and a manual seems to be non existent. I have taken some pics of the door wiring diagram. I'm going to start by trying to get one of the motors to function.

lacanteen Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 If there is a serial number plate on the outer left door edge, I suspect the number will end with either A, B, or C. The first Ranson, WV built machines ended with A which was 1976. The machine is worth more to a collector than a vendor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todd23 Posted February 1, 2017 Author Share Posted February 1, 2017 It was made in Ranson, WV. It has a metal badge on the side with that info along with serial number and model number. Early 1970's is correct. Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
