C350 new fuser & transfer belt wont reset

newbie · 03-04-2008

We have a few Konica Minolta C350s that won't reset the counter when we put the new fuser in, and another one didnt reset when we put the transfer belt in. We have tried serveral new ones and none of them work. Is there a solution? Ive called our rep and talked to hotline advisers serveral times and still no fix. Can someone please help me? Thanks

what you need to do is find some fuses that are 80ma fast blow for the transferbelt i dont know what the fuser uses. that would be a safe bet. the fuses probably broke in the parts

For the FUSER units you will need a 50mA or 80mA fuse with wires - looks like a resistor. These weirdo problems happen sometimes, but not often.

I tried that about a week ago, we have them in stock in case a machine locks of because of the fuser or transfer belt and we are waiting on parts, so the fuse didnt help either. any other options?

are there any P codes showing (triangle showing on control panel)? Units won't reset if there are.

No there are no errors or codes evrything is normal. We had one that did the same thing a few months back and my service manager traced one of the main wring harnesses and one of the pins had snapped in the end and it wasnt getting full voltage and that fixed it, but this one evrything seems to be correct and I still have no idea what the problem is. And the machine is down due to he fusing unit being to its life end and no way of resetting it.
