I just emailed you. Do you think a reset would help?

Try turning off & back on. Make sure all doors are closed ALL the way.
Manual is coming. It takes awhile to download.

On the front of the MPU you will see 3 buttons and 1 switch. Press the right hand button and close the door.  See what happens.  ( If you are using coins the switch MUST be up)

Good answer Buzz. I don't have a 5500 so I didn't know if it had one like the 6000.  :244-

Well one was the main door switch. It was not making good contact and the other was a switch on the dollar bill acceptor that was staying in the open position instead of closing the circuit. I was so happy to get it fixed. Now if I can get the Universal 8215 fix I might need to really celegrate! Again many thanks for your directions.
