Hi Guys,

Tomorrow to a Copier with error E000029-0003... Could not find much on CTN. Nor in the manual. just to check connections or replace sensor ?
Could it just be spoiled toner on the sensor ?

I assume i would have to remove the ITB to get to it, judging by the manual ?

Any hints or suggestions are welcome...

it could be that the shutter is bound up and not opening up for the windows to read the patches correctly. Also check the arm that connects the solenoid to the shutter.

■■Preparations
1) Open the Front Cover, Right Lower Cover and Right Upper Cover.(Refer to page 4-104)
2) Remove the ITB Cover.(Refer to page 4-104)
3) Remove the ITB Unit.(Refer to page 4-105)


■■Procedure
1) While pushing the shutter, clean the surface of Patch Sensor with a cotton swab moistened
with water and tightly wrung by wiping it in one direction. After cleaning, make sure that
there is no toner contamination on the sensor surface.


CAUTION:
• Do NOT use the alcohol since it melts the sensor window and causes while turbidity.
• Do not dry-wipe it since the sensor window is charged and attracts the toner.

Thanks Huys,

that helped a lot !

Opened up the copier, removed the ITB and saw the hook (gray thingy) that is supposed to open the shutter is broken. (see image)shutter.jpg

I tried prieing it back But it pulled out again... But is was enough to get the copyer printing again... I manually opened the shutter and it kept printing.

I'm not sure for howlong though so i guess it has te be replaced. whats the part to buy and how do i get it out ?

[JPiek]

Found the partno. i think : FM3-8902-010, but when I google it it comes up as a 5030 model... I ot it form the 52xx Partsmanual though...

The servicemanual has no info on how to replace it ?

Thanks again guys !
