I have had some issues recently with Canon S-1 Finishers on 2270 type machines throwing E540-8005 codes. These have had single bins (I know about the harness issues with the dual bin). A lot of the time, it is the fuse on the finisher controller board, but I think that is just a symptom of the issue. The bin will be up into the mechanical stop (bends it actually). I can crank it down and sometimes get a reset or replace the controller board and it works for awhile. I have tried to replace the bin harness on rare occasion and that seems to also fix them, but I have one that has been kicking my butt recently where putting a board on it buys me about a week to two weeks before it comes back. Last time, I changed the tray harness and it coded out again after about 10 days. I have looked over the bulletins for this finisher, but unless I missed something, they mostly deal with the dual bin set up, which is not the case with this one.
Is the bin motor something that goes bad on these? I have never replaced one before, but obviously changing the board is not fixing this long term.
Thanks
