Alright Ive been messing with the wide column trying to vend the bottles and I got it jammed! So I cleared the jam and now when you try to vend it says "try another selection" So I noticed the motor stopped mid cycle of the cam because of the jam so I manually rotated the motor/cam to the next stop cycle of the cam but it still says the same thing. I had the same issue with a narrow column one time and did the same thing by manually rotating the motor to the next spot and that fixed it. So how to get the wide column to start vending again since it jammed??


Thanks so far guys
Ryan

I have not had the motors out. I used the shims on the right for 4 different can slots and only 1 of the 4 vend right. The other 3 slots vend 2 sodas on the second vend and nothing on the 3rd vend. I have all 4 setup the exact same, so I was thinking I was using the wrong shims and just getting lucky with one working right. This morning when I took those pics I used one of the shims on the left for cans and it worked fine on all three vend cycles??? but I only tried it in one slot.

OK guys here are pics of the shims I have and of the cams. The machine will be set up with 8 cans and the number 1 slot will be 16.9 oz bottle water. I have the can slots 3 cans deep. Please tell me what shims I need and what I need for the bottle water as I know it doesnt work as is (bottles get jammed and dont vend, obviously needs shims). I have 4 each of the metal shims and 3 each of the plastic shims. I also only have 4 rod and springs. Do I need a rod and spring for each can? (im pretty sure I do). I already ordered more rod and springs but not shims because I am unsure which ones I need.

The bottom picture appears to be for cans, yes. But the top picture is rather incomplete as far as showing the actual cam. Could you take the soda out and take a picture of the whole row and cam when the row is empty?



Yes I will pull the product tomorrow and post pic
