Bottom Plate Lift Motor Error (1-Pass ADF)
Pattern
D
Error Condition
The bottom plate HP sensor [S17] does not detect the home position of the bottom plate after the ADF
bottom plate lift motor [M7] turns to ON and lowers the bottom plate. Or, the bottom plate position
sensor [S9] does not detect the position of the plate after the ADF bottom plate lift motor [M7] turn to
ON and raises the bottom plate.
Major Cause
 Bottom plate position sensor [S9] output error
 Bottom plate HP sensor [S17] output error
 ADF bottom plate lift motor [M7] error (does not rotate)
 ADF control Board defective
Solution
1. Connectors not connected properly
Check that all the connectors of the motor, the bottom plate HP sensor, and the bottom plate
position sensor are properly connected. (connectors not disconnected or half-inserted)
Reconnect the connectors if they are not connected correctly.
2. Harness damaged
Check if the harness between the board and the motor or sensor is damaged or exposed.
Replace the harness if it is not in good condition.
3. Motor or sensor defective
Check that the motor can be rotated as a single component, the sensor can be turned off and on,
and the motor's drive is transmitted to other components. Also check if the motor is overloaded.
If the motor or sensor is defective, replace it.
4. Board defective
Check if there are any traces of short circuit on the board. If so, replace the ADF control board.
