This machine had a can jamed in her which I unjamed and restocked her with product. Now she vends 2 cans of the same product. That is not good. I manually made her vend by tripping the micro switch at the motor and she went through it Ok except that she would only vend when she went through the second cycle. The first cycle was a short cycle she stopped and no vend. I tripped her to go into the second (long) cycle thats when she vends both cans.Is the problem at the motor or is it in the machine? Thanks for any help................Nick

Make sure the weld didn't break or loosen in the cradle behind motor. Try rocking it by hand to see if loose. I've had older machines do that and I fixed by lengthening the motor switch arm so it travels a little farther before dropping into the cam valley.

The cradle works because when you trip the motor for the second part of the cycle on the cam it drops both cans. Will do a visual when I go back tomorrow.Thanks for the help.........Nick
