roadfire Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 I have a dixie narco don't know the model it is older and it has been wired for free play (no need for money) I have had it about 5 years and it works great. I really only use two columns 1 and 3 the two outside ones. there are minimal drinks in other just to keep it not empty. Today it doesn't dispense from the buttons, no one has opened it, if I press the micro-switch at each motor it will dispense from each column. However nothing from the buttons. Could this be a relay problem? I have added pictures to help identify Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cvending Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 I could be one of the columns is jammed or you free vend wiring has an issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roadfire Posted January 23, 2023 Author Share Posted January 23, 2023 haven't checked the wiring too deeply yet, however column not stuck as i dispensed three cans in each column using the switches on each motor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZVendor Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 I don't see the free vend wiring in the machine. It's usually involving the relay socket and the relay is then missing. Or the coin mech is removed and a cheater cord is installed. Since coin mechs can't be set to zero price you have a odd duck there. Show us the free vend wiring.

roadfire Posted January 23, 2023 Author Share Posted January 23, 2023 removed wire 71and capped it moved wire 10 to 71 place, plug in relay. It has been working for years with no issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roadfire Posted January 23, 2023 Author Share Posted January 23, 2023 upon further checking column one doesn't always do a complete cycle of the motor and locks up the whole machine, the motor switch arm doesn't drop into the slot on the motor disc. If i operate the motor switch it will work on all columns even column one until it short cycles again, which happens every two or three dispenses from column one. I am leaning towards the motor now.

I replaced the motor and all works fine now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roadfire Posted January 23, 2023 Author Share Posted January 23, 2023 Now that this is fixed and running, how do I figure out what model it is? There are no plates anywhere on it. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
