Ok, first, are they dropping to the tray or the hopper? All or some?

Make sure you have a good coin in the comparator. Also turn the comparator sensitivity dial back and forth a few times and then all the way CCW, and then just a bit CW.

With the door open, there is a small white button on the coin optics. pressing it should add a playable credit. See if that works too.

Do you mean it's working correctly or just passed that test? If it''s working correctly, you may still have an issue causing it to be intermittent. The little white button is just a test button. It should not have fixed anything.

Not too much you can do except wait and see if it acts up again. If it does act up again, you may try jiggling the wires going to the comparator and optics and see if that makes it start working again. might just be a bad connection somewhere.
