suspect the drive wheel assembly. Verify by visually inspecting
the assembly inside the back panel. Use caution.
Broken accumulator spring. Use the Accum parameter in the Test Outputs section of the

Visually inspect the accumulator door assembly in the back. Use
caution.

section of the Service menu. Then use the Accum function to
close the doors. Finally, calibrate the Dispenser. See manual or
below for calibration instructions.

the basket or sending a signal
to the controller.
Remove any fries or other debris which may be interfering with
the basket reaching the sensor.
Disconnect and reconnect the basket sensor connector at the
controller.
Replaced the basket sensor if reconnecting the sensor
connection does not solve the problem.
Hopper not installed correctly. Inspect hopper for proper assembly and placement.
