    Default Robocop shooter not working

    This isn't a section I normally dive into but I decided to try and work on a robocop machine for a customer. The shooter motor is not working. I've cleaned the contacts in the knob. Checked continuity through the knob and its fine. Also checked voltage going to the motor and that too is fine. (about 1-2v DC on standby and 11-12v DC when knob is turned.) So I'm thinking the the motor itself might be dead. The customer said they got the motor to move once or twice when they were fiddling with it. I may also try to hook up 12v DC direct and see if it spins.

    Also as a side note the sound doesn't appear to work and neither does the little display on the front of the tray. The customer doesn't care much about the sound but in case that may lead to some problem with the motor.

    Pictures attached. Any help is appreciated. Or if someone possibly has a spare shooter motor to sell.

    Seeing as its s standard dongle. The front display will not work as there is no credit system working.
    Also check to see if you have 24vac going to the dongle (supplied by the 1A fuse on the interface board. Then check you have 18vdc (I think) leaving the dongle. After that. If ok. Short the shooter ring to the machines metal frame.

    Well found the answer to my problem(s)

    Little diode on the card reader bypass someone made broke its connection on one side. Resoldered that and now it works great.

    Also found the answer to my sound problem. Appears someone removed the volume toggle switch. So just jumping the contacts with a volume control and that is fixed.
