PPVENDING Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Good morning guys. I recently purchased an RVV 500 glass front beverage machine and yesterday I went to service the machine and it said out of service. When I checked the error codes it said vend mechanism and then it said "Home Sensor". A buddy of mine told me to wipe down some sensors(which I had no idea were there). The cup began moving a little bit more than prior to the wipe but still not fully functional and the error codes are still there. Any help on how to resolve this problem? I'm fairly new to the business so any advice would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chard Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 check your prices first. if they have all changed, the battery on the board is bad. otherwise It is also possible do you have a bad door harness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PPVENDING Posted August 28, 2020 Author Share Posted August 28, 2020 okay thank you. If I have a bad door harness, what would be the plan of action then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chard Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 replacement. it's pretty straight forward, but will take some time and attention to detail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southeast Treats Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 There is an upgrade kit for the harness assembly if you need to go that route. Clean all the sensors again and check that the cup arm is level. I use QD (quick drying) contact cleaner on switches and connectors with pretty good success. Power off first!

PPVENDING Posted September 17, 2020 Author Share Posted September 17, 2020 Hey guys, so I went back after reading this thread and tried to fix it myself. To no avail. Someone told me to do a sensor check and this is what popped up when I did it. I also took a video of what happens with the machine but I think its too large a file to attach here. I appreciate your help. If you have any more advice please feel free to send it. Also anyone have an estimate on what the cost will be to have someone switch out the harness for me?

PPVENDING Posted September 17, 2020 Author Share Posted September 17, 2020 Hey, I've attached a link of what the machine does. Hopefully this better assist you guys in helping me diagnose the problem here. I'm just worried I'll hire a tech to fix one thing and the machine needs something completely different. I've wiped all the sensors and took off the top of the cup to make sure no wires are loose. I'm not sure what else to do. Thanks again for all the help. https://streamable.com/c4n7fk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
