Hamilton Dual Stacker

[Earl Weiss]

Hamilton issued a 4/17/13 memo indicating discontinuance of dual stackers for XE validators.

Seems Dumb. I've got 4 and like the. Always thought about converting the 5th.

What gives?

I have a Hamilton model RNS with a c2000 controller. I keep getting 4 flash pause then 3 flash code with corresponds with a COIN DROP FAULT. Nothing seems stuck..everything appears to be working...I have a few extra hoppers and the code remains the same. Any ideas? Would appreciate your help thanks!

Bad coin switch.

Ok first time working on these..where is the coin switch located? I hate being a rookie lol..feel dumb even asking the question

Remove the eight screws that hold on the side cover, flex the stainless sides out a bit to remove the plastic guard, you'll see it.

Clean under the switch in case there's dust and crap built up - that can cause your problem too. You can swap the pairs of wires between the two stacks of the switch, just be sure you get them back on the right terminals.

dbrown2911, STOP!!! Don’t move the wires around on the coin switch!! If you put them on the wrong terminal you can damage the controller. If you have to replace the coin switch don’t use the 11-0008 switch. Hamilton has come out with an newer easier to install switch #100-0151, it’s a few dollars more, $42.70 list. Since your inside the Hopper look at the Hopper bowl. If it has a grove worn into the bottom of the Bowl it needs to be replaced.
