THANK YOU!! I GOT IT TO WORK!!!

I began by once again cleaning the sensors in the lower pull out housing. I removed the board and cleaned each sensor and also the plastic guards.

Upon putting the machine back together, i realized that the front two wheels (that pull the bill in) were over the pressure plate instead of under it. Thus, there was no way for the wheels to get traction on the bill once it was input.

Put the acceptor back together and it worked like a charm!

All in all, it was a dirty sensor and someone putting the acceptor back together incorrectly. Nonetheless, it is fixed now and just installed the machine in an apartment building.

Thanks again everyone, great first experience on the forum!

Thanks! When i disconnect power, the light turns off entirely. When i plug it back in, the light is solid and does not blink at all....

Its only when i try to insert a bill a few times that i get the error again.

Appreciate the reply though...hopefully the above can help refine what the issue may be...
