@@alow2323 glad to help. Best of luck to you.

The motors in those old machines are usually in series...so if the first one has a broken connection, none of the motors after it will work. I would really inspect the wires going to the first motor. Maybe even swap the first motor for the last motor. Also make sure your sold out switches are working.

It all depends on the machine. What do you have? For a royal g3, you can just reach underneath and release the product stop latch and move the rotor around and drop down the sodas. You can also go into the menu and have the machine test vend a column multiple times.

@@dahur it has a tube and evaporation tray.

@@HappyVending I just watched the last couple minutes of the video and that was all shown. I guess I should have waited, lol.

@@feedinr4kids If it's a newer machine with a control board, you can just set the price to 0 like I did in this video.

Yeah, you will need an MEI bezel like this one: www.ebay.com/itm/185813440354?itmmeta=01J36VGWQNNVMNCK8GSK2N3KEZ&hash=item2b43581762:g:FK4AAOSwBWxkD7V1&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAA4IFcS%2FOqGjq819MjA17NGRQMyuqrID8j7vmifFv3SeIVaJkCIKaBsekw82ue8j%2Fp2rz40KLD84gJvaBZQXxU%2BacDBWLvMb9QCZArQDjZgxosO5gHJQFWcWu265w2PXXrpwTjG6vQ25OqkBQdDoATuP40rt%2F11zlWW17LxXpeixjjMt3laCIJU0pNA1w1D9cDCMmuMwEmLUKzrt7Do2PWYZ%2BmqxSreqXBMVM0p7NnWlQ2LOuTkjqjRF4plqw4I40xgd9AfL6vWLyjdr42a493qisVA1Lleh%2BOu6Vs%2BZqmcJet%7Ctkp%3ABk9SR_rLw9uZZA

@@HappyVending so to remove the original bezel is it just 4 nuts and it pulls right out?

@@alow2323 Yes, and power off your machine before disconnecting any harnesses.

@@HappyVending 🫡 thank you sir

They take the 6% out of the sale. So if the item costs 1 dollar, they take 6 cents and you get 94 cents. Because of this, many people set up 2-tier pricing in which you charge more for credit card sales. Watch this video: th-cam.com/video/wI7mWKz3wIQ/w-d-xo.htmlsi=gB7zszDp2tNEGEYj

@@HappyVending thank you so much for explaining this. I will watch the video. You have beeen great help

@@HappyVending Hi brother, I am finally getting ready to get my first card reader. I had a question. I am buying a vending machine from a person that has 55 + vending machines running. So they mentioned they would sell me the card reader and transfer the ownership. And they mentioned it takes about 10 days and cost for transfer is around $30. Is this a straight forward process or is the transfer a messy process usually? Its my first time. The person seems trust worthy. I went to their warehouse and looked at other machines too, so they are legit. Also, while we start the transfer process, I plan to put the machine on site and start setting it up. If the transfer does take 10 days as mentioned. Do i put a note to only use cash and not card reader for 10 days and onces its transfers, then remove that sign from my vending machine?

You would have to have the previous owner contact the cc reader company and transfer it to your name. If you don't know the previous owner, it's just usable for parts.

It wouldn't take dollars either...you could see on the display it said "coins only"

Usually when I come across old machines like this, they are just static props.

Good luck.

No, columns 1 and 7 are set to 1 deep.

The machines have elevators that rise up to bring the products down safely.

The backup battery on your board is dead and needs to be replaced. It's a big battery that looks like a multipin chip. It should say timekeeper on it. Be careful removing it from the board...use a chip puller if you have one. Since the machine lost its programming, you will need to reprogram Space to Sales and prices.

@@HappyVending I really appreciate your help!! Your videos have helped me in so many ways, I owe you a .50 cent soda if I ever see you!! Happy vending

Is that something I can do myself? Is it soldered in or does it pull straight up? If not do you recommend somewhere I can send it off?

@@alow2323 I've replaced them myself. They are not typically soldered in, but sometimes might have a dap of glue holding them in. Make sure you put the new one in in the same direction, pay attention to where pin 1 goes.

@@HappyVending any special tools that you would recommend

@@tekubus usually 5 cent, 10, 20, 40, 80, 1.60

@@HappyVending thank you for the response. What confuses me, is that it only has three dip switches.

@@tekubus That might be a newer coin mech that gets the pricing from the control board of the machine. What type of connector is on the coin mech?

@@josueramos8664 maybe you need a.new led screen.

@@malcolmparker8942 coin mech swapping is very similar on all machines.

@@HappyVending thanks, I came across your channel yesterday as I was looking at Nyax equipment for my vending machines and I’ve been binge watching all of your videos haha

Sorry, but I'm not familiar with Dataphone. Are you sure you have good signal? Can you check your signal level? Is the antenna outside the machine?

Keep at it. Do you have a Royal?

@@HappyVending yes, it's a royal 660-9 I live in a Tourist area so I used one of your videos to increase prices. Thank you. I've watched so many of your videos but I still don't understand why there are 12 columns and only 9 selections? I know I watched a video before about it, but I can't remember or find it anymore. 😅 Overall thank you so much. 🙏

@@AlimentandonuestraFE.2024 You need to watch this video again: th-cam.com/video/yNDWABRDqmc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=LZBWaR2ekDy0tEYD

You probably have space to sales set wrong. Watch my video on Space to Sales.

Are you sure you have a 660-9 machine? 660-9 would be a g3 machine and these shims won't work. These shims are for 650 machines, which are the Merlin iV machines. Does you machine have coke graphics on it?

I still try to pay around 40 cents a can. I do not purchase off brands.

Go into technician settings on the vpos and there is an option to set the machine as full and to reset the cash box. You will need to know your password.

I'm not 100 percent sure because it doesn't state that in the manual, but it's probably around 12 kWh per day.

@@HappyVending Thankyou, i did also try looking in the manual online but also couldnt find the information. (i just want a free vend one for my home🤣) but at nearly at 40c per kwh it might not be the best idea for me. Just watched several of your helpful videos and learnt so much. Thanks again.

@@itsJENmofo Yeah, it would probably be best to just buy a small fridge for your garage.

Thank you. I am still using the Nayax readers that I installed in this video and they are still working well.

As much room for what? To change the bulbs?

For the full management suite, you pay more per month per machine?

I usually just call them: 651-224-4391

NBS: www.nbsinc.net/ has the dimensions of most common machines on file. You just tell them the model and serial number of your machine.

How old is your vendo? If it supports MDB, it will be easy to find a replacement. If it is older, you will need to make sure you get one with the correct connector and voltage. Check vending works for a compatable coin mech. vendingworks.com/

The dixie stack machines generally do not have a light relay to turn off and on the lights. The Royal machines do have a relay kit you can add for the lights.th-cam.com/video/twe2vr19KCg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=1hVDvU5kcCM0tPK9

The recycler still works great. It is full of 10s and 5s every week, so students are using it with bigger bills. If you have a big account, I would recommend it.
