wegroup Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 I've never had a problem with this machine until now. The display reads "wait." Power is getting to the coin mech (coinco quantum), and dbv (coinco BA-50), however, neither is accepting. After pressing red mode button, I cannot enter menu, still displays "wait." Locked up. Powered down vendor, waited a couple of minutes, powered back on, and display still reads "wait." Machine is cold, just not taking money. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

cvending Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 try removing the battery from the control board and wait 25 seconds before replacing it. Then power up and you should be fine. Sometimes they just lock up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wegroup Posted February 5, 2018 Author Share Posted February 5, 2018 Okay, thanks. I'll give it a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wegroup Posted February 8, 2018 Author Share Posted February 8, 2018 Sorry for the slow follow-up. Powered down unit, disconnected battery, let set for a couple of minutes, reconnected battery, restored power, same problem. Should I believe that the board needs to be replaced?

cvending Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 My guess then is that it is a bad board. They can be repaired. If you have a spare board, swap them and get that one serviced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Is the door switch good......you can remove the two wires on it and connected them, if switch is bad, the wait will go away when the two bare wires are connected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZVendor Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 The door switch is working because Wait won't show unless the board sees the door switch change position from service to vending. Wait is not supposed to even be on longer than a machine self check so the board is definitely bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wegroup Posted February 9, 2018 Author Share Posted February 9, 2018 Thanks for your input - I thought it would be the board, just wanted to make sure before I ordered one, as I don't have an extra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZVendor Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Email me at rbepic4gatgmaildotcom if you need an exchange board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wegroup Posted February 13, 2018 Author Share Posted February 13, 2018 After replacing the board, I still had the wait on the display. After reading AZVendor's post about how the machine was doing a self-check during the wait, I realized that maybe something else was amiss. After unplugging the coin mech, the display changed from wait to the proper message. I replaced the coin mech, and the problem was solved. This is an example on my part to jumping to conclusions without properly addressing the issue in the correct order. Hopefully, others can learn from my mistake without making the same mistake.
