The very first thing to do is clean the coin path in the top part of the coin mech with a damp rag and a touch of dish soap and then dry with a rag real good. Do not use any chemical cleaners that will leave a film. Over time the coin path will get dirty and will not reconize certain coins. Then try it again and tell us where the quarters go when inserted. Coin Return? do they get stuck?

Good Luck

sounds like the programming for the coin mech. The coin mech would need to be sent to have reprogrammed. It's obviously not dirt or anything as you said it accepts other denominations.

Most MARS MEI coin changers can be tuned on location. Just use Google and look for MARS coin tuning.

Takes about 5 minutes. I had one that did the exact same thing, I just had to re-teach it what a quarter looks like. It's since been on location for almost a year.
