this helped me immensely! Thank you. i have been reloading the coins directly through the mech and not using tube fill. go figure. took the opportunity to clean as you suggested. works great again!
I enjoy all of your helpful videos. How do I update an older AP 7600 snack machine so that it will take a Card reader? Will putting on an newer coin mechanism work?
The 7600 is a pretty old machine and will not support a CC reader with its original board. You would have to upgrade the board to an aftermarket board like one from InOne.
I have a dixie 501e and I'm trying to upgrade my coin mech to a newer conlux. The machine is not recognizing the new coin mech. I tried unplugging and restarting machine. Still not working. Any suggestions appreciated. Thank you.
How do you change the prices on your selections? I have an older coke machine. Serial no. 297748. Model no. V460. It has the 9302-GX coin reciever. Thank you.
There are probably dip switches on the coin mech that you turn on to add multiples of 5 cents. For instance, if the first dip switch were the only one on, the soda would be 5 cents. If the second dip switch were the only one on, the soda would be 10 cents. If the first and second dip switches were on, the soda would be 15 cents (5 + 10). Get it?
I do not have any quantum 700 coin mechs, so I'm not sure about the operation of them. Post your question on the vendiscuss.net message board and someone will be able to answer that question.
Um, about the graphics on the Royal Merlin IV soda machine in this video. What graphics did it have before it switched into the red background bear graphics?
@@danielwalterbury9233 You've asked me this before. You can't remove the side decals without them coming apart...so they are in the trash. The Gatorade front I have in storage. Do you want to buy it?
not positive... but i think the USA/Canada switch means when it's ON it will take BOTH .. off it will only accept USA .. been a long time since I've dealt with those old tan mech's.
Hello, Thank you for your response and I apologize for the delayed reply...this isn't my primary email. I have another dilemma. My AMS 39 combo(guaranteed vend)won't except coins or bills. When I start the machine the acceptor goes through the motion,but I can't get the machine to work. I had someone come out and look at it with no success...he said it could be a motherboard issue. Finding a repairman has been a chore in itself. The guy who looked at the machine is quitting the business.I haven't heard back from AMS and it's become a bit discouraging. This is the machine that could help jump start my business and it's just sitting in my garage. Thanks for any insight. Kindly, Malcolm Parker
Do you mean it doesn't report cash sales through the credit card reader? If so, look to see if there is a eprom update available for your control board. If not, you may need to get a replacement board like an Inone board if cash reports are important to you.
@@AyoitsNifty Hmmm...I've never tried to take one of those apart since I usually just send them out for service. I guess you could try taking it apart and see if you can determine what is keeping the buttons depressed. Even if you mess it up, those coin acceptors are fairly inexpensive now so you could always pick up a replacement.
@HappyVending it essentially had no plungers in its buttons. so I had two of those models. The one I was trying to replace wasnt returning consistently. I swapped internal parts and my vending machine now makes correct change! I'll be sending the other off for repair.
Can u please tell me why a Dr pepper michane my nephew had bought a Dr pepper machine it works but when u put $$ in make selection nothen happened what's up please hit me back i think the coin meck is bad what's ur opinion

@@rigobertodimas8014 What make/model machine do you have? Does it vend when you put dollars into the machine? What is the can counter? You might want to try "tube fill" mode.
@@HappyVending idk on model no it doesn't vend nothing at all its not completely full just enough to push the paddles in so the lights on the slecter goes out could be the problem cuz its not completely full
Oh yeah..and NEVER test vend anything diet..unless your gonna drink it...because of dates..now you gonna throw a very short date back on top😉 God I've been at this too long
Hay bro can u please tell me the name where you order the cooling deck for a.

@@HappyVending hay bro my coin mec on my Dixie narco 501 the quarter side doesn't work that I sell my cans for 75 cents each when it comes time to give change I hear a click but nothing comes out I've already cleaned it like repeatedly sometime it works and sometimes it don't can you please send me the phone number for the address link or I can send it to go get it rebuilt please how much do you think it would cost me to get it fixed versus a new one hit me back please
If it's a decent coin mech, then it would be worth sending out for repair. you can send it to Vendors Exchange. www.vesolutions.co/. It will cost around 70 for the repair.@@RIGOBERTODIMAS
@@HappyVending hey bro is there any way you can sell me a used cooling deck for Dixie Norco 501 the original problem is the cooling fan moter sease up or sell me a used cooling fan I removed the deck plug in the deck it works fine just not the fan please help me I wood really appreciate it a lot
You will never know how much your channel has helped us!
Thank you so much from Hazard, KY!
You're welcome...happy vending!
Just swapped my first Coin Mech and your video was very helpful. Thanks!

Glad I could help! Happy vending!
Do you have a video for installing a coin mech on a 474 combo machine? I can't remember how to install mine. Thank you for your videos.
@@malcolmparker8942 coin mech swapping is very similar on all machines.

Are you sure you're coin mech is good? Have you tried it on another machine? Does the mech show any lights?

Thank you for these videos. I have a quantum 700. Do I need to program it for each tube? How do empty it? Ugh.

I literally just got a merlin like this, and the whole front half of the mechanism is gone. Are all coinco mechanisms the same? Mines a 768-10
You need to make sure it's a vending mech with 24volt mdb....not an amusement mech with 117 volt. The mech should have a white 6 pin power harness.
Um, about the graphics on the Royal Merlin IV soda machine in this video. What graphics did it have before it switched into the red background bear graphics?
It had old Gatorade graphics:
darkinthepark.com/temp/vending/gator.jpg
Does the school you film videos at have Pepsi and Coke machines? If so, what graphics do those Pepsi and Coke machines have?
@@danielwalterbury9233 no pepsi machines..and the Coke machines are shown in most of the videos.
Also, what happened to the old Gatorade plexiglass front and side graphics?
@@danielwalterbury9233 You've asked me this before. You can't remove the side decals without them coming apart...so they are in the trash. The Gatorade front I have in storage. Do you want to buy it?
do you have a video showing how to change the message that scrolls?
You can't do custom messages on these Royal machines.
Is it possible for his coin mech to be recalibrated for coin recognition? For example teaching it that 1 euro it is equal to 1$ ?
Possibly, but not by the average user like you and me.
not positive... but i think the USA/Canada switch means when it's ON it will take BOTH .. off it will only accept USA .. been a long time since I've dealt with those old tan mech's.

Did this machine ever work for you? Is it showing any error messages?
hello y have one snack machine but does not count the money the snack machine model is od165 what do i need to replace and where can i buy it, thanks

how old is this machine? you done a lot of work too it 🤷🏼♂️
It is a machine from the 90s. It was a Gatorade machine when Quaker Oats still owned Gatorade...which they sold to Pepsi in 2001.
👌👌👌👌👌
I have a used coinco I just got off ebay. The dispensing buttons are stuck depressed. Quick fix? No help from seller.
which model coinco did you get? Are all of the buttons stuck?
@@HappyVending hi! It's a 9302-gx. All 3 are stuck down.
@@AyoitsNifty Hmmm...I've never tried to take one of those apart since I usually just send them out for service.

hey is there a similar process for a DN276e?
Yes...it would be the same...just remember to unplug your machine when swapping the mech.
Do you know how to install the credit card reader ?
Yes..I've installed three credit card readers. It's not too hard...they come with directions.
11:10 I'd almost have refused the box you got, looking at the damage.
It did have a lot of padding inside.
