my hopper stopped working, I think it is the solenoid or possibly the motor, anyway, if someone has one to sell or info on how to fix it contact me please

For parts check with Alan at K-LAR , there is a link on main page.

more information on the hopper or picture of the hopper and machine it came from. pretty sure we can guide you through it, just can't say until we know more.

I will up load pictures tomorrow. im at work and the machine is at home

Need to see if it turns over by hand.. Release the brake on the motor and reach inside the hopper to see if you can spin the hopper coin wheel.. If it spins over then we can talk you through bench testing it.. I have see the gearboxes freeze up, because the grease inside drys up and hardens..At that point you will need to drill a small hole in the gearbox casting on the top side and add a few drops of oil..

ill try, I noticed that a wire is not hooked up to the solenoid by the payout relay. I need a new solenoid... ebay??

Post a picture of the wire and solenoid..Might be quit possible to just repair it..

I will when I get home.. the copper wire is really small on one side.

What is this called ?

Amechanic · « **Reply #9 on:** November 06, 2018, 07:12:18 PM »

Looks like a ceramic resistor.

The wires are loose.. where can I get one?

I canâ€™t tell much by your pics. They are too close. I need to see what relay itâ€™s from. Same with the pic of the broken wire, just a little farther away.

I tried but it won't let me because the files are too large

Amechanic · « **Reply #15 on:** November 06, 2018, 09:38:49 PM »

Pic can be no larger then 1000k per pic up to 5 per posting. I email my pics back to my self. When sending using my I Phone it gives me the option on how big I want to send the files. I then can save the pics I sent to my self and up load them here.

anybody know how to determine the correct ceramic capacitor to get? ALL IT SAYS ON IT IS 470..

Badbaud · « **Reply #19 on:** November 07, 2018, 07:52:51 AM »

It is a 470 Ohm power resistor.
