I do not have the coin tray installed, does that matter?

no

Try that door optics test #13 again.

It togglea between 1 and 0.

A previous post you said it toggled between 0 and 1 when door was being open and closed. It should only toggle while the door is closed.

So, with the door closed, I lift the door latch up and down, as I lift it up and down it goes from zero to one.

What state are you in. Maybe someone from NLG Lives close by?

That is not correct, try this from flash cards:

"This optic’s readout toggles between a low (0) and a high (1) state when the main door is closed."

Push latch down and leave it down during test.

Hmm. First video is what I was doing: https://photos.app.goo.gl/LdGNRAABD9MgGKsV6

Second video is what I think you suggested: https://photos.app.goo.gl/LPpLukuQwDBwe8xt8

Also, I live in Casa Grande, AZ, about an hour north of Tucson and as little as 30 minutes away from metro Phoenix depending on where you are (that's a BIG "depending", if you live in central/east/north Phoenix it could be as long as 1.5 hours)

Before calling someone in, I'm wondering if 1) I'm messing something up (like I may have with the optics test), or 2) Perhaps going over the basics one more time for this issue might help, it's been a long thread and people (including myself!) might be getting confused... AFTER ALL, this machine was working before it "suddenly stopped working" - Granted I'm not sure if it stopped working before being moved into storage for a (1-2 years) or after they plugged it in when they came to move it form their rstorage.

I am very much so hoping that the door optic test is failing, and based on what I read earlier, I think that might be the case!

My lines MAY be imperfect, but I think they're close... this is how it lines up: https://photos.app.goo.gl/kV7RQWeC4Hk69AXj8

Perhaps this is as simple as door optics?

If so, someone mentioned adjusting them, but if I remember correctly form when I looked they don't look very adjustable? They kind of look like you would have to bend something to "adjust" them? Any clues?

BINGO door test is FAILING

Bad door optics, bad connection somewhere, or door optics not lined up.

BAM!!!! I knew there had to be SOMETHING going on that was overlooked (my error of course!!)

I might have even removed Q4 unnecessarily.

So how do I address door opticsst the power first? ALign the sensors (as seen in the pic before this post)? Someting else>

After seeing that pic, do you think it mgiht be a simple alignment issue? After all, the machine has been moved a couple of times, who know how "nicely" it was treated during moving! How would I align the sensors?

sixcardmark · « **Reply #93 on:** October 03, 2018, 09:32:25 PM »

which pic was it? I have never had to adjust door optics.

sgolembiewski0903 · « **Reply #94 on:** October 03, 2018, 09:36:57 PM »

This is how they line up:

Here are the pics of the coin optic sensors, they both have clips.. not sure I would test them to make sure they're good?

Can't really tell from the pics. I think someone said you can use a camera to test the emitter.

I'll start a new thread, what is the camera test?

sgolembiewski0903 · « **Reply #97 on:** October 03, 2018, 10:15:45 PM »

I am unable to clear my code 21, when testing test 13 with the door closed, it does not switch back and forth from zero to 1. How can I go through this to troubleshoot what the problem is? If it's just alignment... how do I 1(identify what to align and 2) perfrom the alignment!

Fingers crossed fixing this issue gets the machine running!

sixcardmark · « **Reply #98 on:** October 03, 2018, 10:25:28 PM »

Here is something you can check, Jim from Midwest had me check this for a 21 and he nailed it!

Check the connection on J10 of the motherboard. (with mpu tray still in place, it is the long black connector farthest to the right in the back) You will have to remove hopper. There is a green wire on the left end of that connector that goes thru the door optics. Make sure it is plugged in tight.

Finally making progress now!
