SALT SENSOR POSITION
Attachment 15899


ALSO--Check for a blown 5v breaker on the DC controller. The breaker is located next to connector J2201 on the DC Controller.

I recognize that part. I will change it on Monday. It seems like I have done this before. I have really bad memory and have to re-learn thing I've done a hundred times.

Never power off/on the printer after u do the SUPPLY of developer/

this will cause the SALT sensor reading numbers out of wack>
because on power up the readings from the developer are not set from the Salt Sensor>


( when the Salt Shutter opens and exposes the window it will receive low readings from the patch on bed> resulting in e020 code) this error will prevent a stir & init)

Understood Sir.

[The clk man]

Are we talking about the CLC 3100 here? is it the same as the IRC3100!?

Yes Sir.

in that case the info posted is not for the clc 3100 it's for the clc 5000

YEA' posted the wrong dev. change pdf

CLC3100=Y, M, C, BK
CLC5000=C ,M, Y, BK

still a little brain dead from vacation

anyway/ still think it's a SALT ISSUE

Hopefully that's the case.

What is the exact error code you have you say "E020 1F1" but that is incomplete.

Hope you have a good vacation teckat, where did you go?

E020-01F1

[The clk man]

Changed the salt sensor - no change, still can't initialize or stir the yellow. Any other suggestions?

[The clk man]

I read somewhere that a bad hopper motor could cause this problem. If true, can you guy tell me where the hopper motor is? I have a clc 2400 parts machine so I shoild have another hopper motor. Thanks Robert.

Hopper motor is not involved in STIR & INIT-

THE YELLOW DEVELOPER has enough toner included in the bottle to get a accurate reading/with out dropping down the hopper

I had 30 CLC's2400/3100/5000's to deal with in one building as an in-house tech/ I never released the Lens Shutters & dropped down the hopper to do the STIR & INIT as listed in manual--

1-power off printer
2-open front doors
3-key up printer with doors open/power up printer
4-release hopper outward> before lift >key in both lens shutters> then lift to upward position
5-try a short STIR for M-C-K> then stop for each> if OK !
6-U say when u select STIR for Yellow nothing happens > no rotation at all > then error code 01F1
7-I would pull off back cover on printer to inspect >the Developing motor drive system>& connectors>
YELLOW DEVELOPER DRIVE MOTOR

before u do this> release and hold hopper a little outward>remove lens keys and drop down> power off printer
