e-studio 280 Jamming with E140 error code

[jonezy999]

Having said that, your 1st cassette feed unit is passed its yield so this may well be poor fault finding.

Well I swapped over the feed units and the error still only occurs from the bottom tray.
Could there be another cause for this error?

[jonezy999]

Of course there could be many more causes. Call a tech mate, this could go on forever.

Cool, thanks for all your help mate. Unfortunately I'm not in the position to call a tech.

If anybody knows of another copier fixing related forum to get assistance in this matter, please post or PM the details.
Thanks!

You're welcome.
Why would you not be in a position to call a tech?
You won't find a better tech site than this one.

Power Off first

Power on pressing 03

you will be on Dignostic Output test mode

make sure all covers are closed

Enter 109--------Observe PFP Motor runs ok.
Enter 225--------Observe Transport Clutch Functions ok. try to turn the transport rollers by hand if its tight good, if clutch release when the code is off it functions alright.
Enter 226--------Observe Upper PFP Roller Clutch function as above turn physically and see
Enter 228--------PFP Lower Clutch do the same..

When the code is "on" and if the rollers are turning freely that appropriate clutch is defective.

if not ......clean PFP sensor on the Paper jamming door with a brush check the connectivity of wires to the LGC Board.

It should work else.

Replace LGC Board and see.

Awesome, thanks rukshan4u2c, I will give this a try!

[sambo]

Thanks for the tips rukshan4u2c, however I don't actually have a PFP, just upper and lower in the base config.
However you did steer me on the right path, as I tested the 2nd transport roller - which worked, but then I tested the 2nd transport sensor - and it appears not to be working. I sprayed it with air but it still isn't functioning.
So I will replace that part and see if it fixes my jamming.
