Both Rowe changers were jammed – again

Both Rowe changers were jammed with the error message CK TRANSPORT VF.  Like MEP1 suggested I would like to replace these Rowe bill acceptors but have not found a reasonable method.  I also do not want to purchase all the parts for a new changer for the swap (computer, bill acceptor, and coin dispenser).

Break-in attempt

A couple of morons tried to break-in to my meter box and safe.  Why would someone try to break-in to the coin acceptor entry (first picture top arrow)?  They did get the bike lock off (it was weakened by previous attempts) but I guess the lock that was left was scary?  They also tried to drill out the Medeco lock.  They were not even close, thank goodness.  It is a shame because how stupid are people to think that it is so easy to break-in to something that is left unattended all the time?

Not really sure on the make and model of this car?  If I knew I would get the Birmingham Police straight on the case.  Maybe this time they will say:  “So they did not take anything?  Why are you here again?”
