rjh914 Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 I've got an old USI Model 3030 with a satellite soda vendor attached deployed on location. Twice this week I received a call from the account. Intermittently, after someone purchased something the coin mech would dispense all nickels from the chute. After doing so, a bunch of odd prices show on the display, such as 12.70, 6.90, 9.50...on and on. It clears up when I reboot the control board and reload the nickels. I had a similar problem late last year and had to send the control board in to Wittern for repair. I spoke to tech support today...they recommend that I start by removing the fluorescent light (they said they cause a lot of problems on these old machines). They also said it could be the coin mech or bill validator. Before I start throwing money at this thing, has anyone encountered something similar? What was the fix? Thank you, Bob Hill Hill Vending Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allen watson Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 I had a couple of those that did that. On one I replaced the bulb with an LED bulb and that fixed it. The other one actually had a bad ground at the wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you remember what LED light kit you went with and where you got it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allen watson Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 I bought a replacement led bulb that fit right in the existing sockets from D&S Vending https://www.dsvendinginc.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
