I'm having some trouble with the pull arm on my 6000  -  It doesn't work  :72-

Actually I hear the solenoid click but the arm is still locked and can't move.  Is there an easy fix?   I peered into the machine but it looks like the BV and cash can have to come out - as well as the ticket printer - just for me to get to the apparatus. 

 My first thought would be to remove the pull arm apparatus and hose it down with WD40.

Well, I don't know about you, but I'm a lazy a**. :5- I'd just remove the hopper, stuff the can in there (power off) and spray in that general direction and see if it helped. :96- (Okay, I'd target the handle release system knowing where it was, et-cetera, but I wouldn't start by taking the whole assembly out)

There is a screw that sometimes comes out, it connects the solenoid to the latch(dog).  The screw has a spacer that stops the screw from tightening on the solenoid arm.  The solenoid is located at the back wall of the machine and you can get to it easily by pulling the printer (pulling the printer is easy).  If you need pics, I'll post some later.

Thanks,

I'll take a look and see if I can get to it.

here's a pic.  Note **  if you dont have a spacer, one out of an agitator will fit.

Thanks for the great photo - I'll pull out the printer in a second and see if that's the issue.

Hey JDK, how did you make out with this?

I didn't have a chance to pull it apart yet.  I'm going to do it this week.  I think the problem may be a bit deeper because now it doesn't click with every bet.

She stopped clicking all together now.   :98-

I'll pull it out this week.
