If       so then there is the snap action switches that should hit the pin and       stop the rotation. They often go bad. If you are handy you can use a       newer type switch with a long flat actuator and bend it in two 90 degree       turns so it sort of works backwards, or it's easier to adapt a       counter-clock wise coin type switch to do the same job. I forget       exactly how I mounted them, only 1 bolt hole will line up.              If they don't pop up, do you see a lamp flash under the mech? If so the       trigger solenoids are probably sticky or out of adjustment.              Oh, and most of that depends on a set of wiper fingers that may need       cleaning. I think I normally would drop the pin bank and then the       wipers for a good cleaning, but I'm not quite sure anymore with out       seeing it.              Tony Miklos       Eastern Tennessee              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
