I broke a key off in the door. The only good thing is the key was easy to get out. Also, I cleaned out some vacuums. Which is always fun.
Rowe changer problems
Weird error message "$1 PAY 4 0 0". The changer would steal money and the coin dispenser would not run. Swapped out the coin dispenser and it started working. Then the the bill stacker started just running. Back and forth, back and forth. I guess the stacker is having problems or the computer is messed up so I just unplugged the stacker. Then the changer started working fine.
Hose clamp problem
A hose clamp crapped out. The hose fell off the solenoid bank and drank all my chemical. Great.
RO Water hose leak
I was not very prepared for this problem. At least I fixed it for now. I need to purchase some unions.
Kleen-Rite free Monthly Special Calendar
This time my Rowe High Security Bill Acceptor Inlet Plate for the BC-1400 Kit #27040201 must have been the retail version. Not the repackage of other returns I got last time. Last time I got two bill acceptor face places but only one or two screws. This time I got all the correct pieces from Kleen-Rite and a calendar.
It is pretty easy to install. Just unscrew four screws. Then drill some holes.
Now a bolt goes all the way through. Now that look more secure, or at least it looks like you can not put your hand in the machine.
Vending machine problem
Conlux bill acceptors eating money again.
Bent foam brush
Someone ran over the foam brush.
Floor wet: Update – Solved?
I guess the float valve gets stuck every once and a while. Of course when I am not there. It was new and installed on October 10, 2006 which should mean the alignment is just off? But it seems fine and just started overflowing. I think I need to just replace it again.
Vacuum problem
Apparently all the wire harnesses need to be connected for the vacuum to work correctly. I guess it fell out? This caused all the buttons to not work and the machine to steal money.
Lighting issues: Update
I installed some metal halide bulbs today. It was lots of fun.
