Bizhub C360 stuck in hour glass mode

Re: Bizhub C360 stuck in hour glass mode

I sincerely doubt that any repair company is to be able to repair such boards. Besides probably from blown ICP's, how are they going to diagnose that very complicated electronics? Only way would be to hook it up to a same type of machine perhaps but that raises a doubt, they cannot have a testing machine for all brands and types. Besides of that where are they going to get the special dedicated IC's from? Power units could be diagnosed and repaired cause that's more or less standard technology not necessarily brand specific but not the logic boards.

Try to get a junker. They are cheap these days and contain lots of other parts. At least that's what we are doing.

We have a repair facility but can mostly only fix power supplies or replace suspect ram chips and ICP's.
Mostly used to repair server/computer motherboards were the chips are more available.


...Get boards from an old machines. Someone did share how to fix the license management error and it works like a charm.
Replaced only 1 of those C360 boards ever.

So, begins my search for a used MFP PWB. IF anybody has one at a decent price let me know. I'm also going to contact my wholesaler and see what he has to offer as well.

Factory Authorized Circuit Board Repair by Hytec Dealer Services, Inc.
They send you a repaired board first and you send the bad one back.
From my own experience their boards have a 97% success rate and their prices are very reasonable.

Hytec in Orlando is they only one I know that probably could fix it. They do have test machines for every board they repair. Very reliable. Some proprietary chips they just can't get.
Truth is, their price is just under what a parts c360 costs whsle, so in most cases get the parts machine. Back to that procedure I posted about swapping it out. I think it applies to this series, but be sure. I am finding some parts on eBay...

Re: Bizhub C360 stuck in hour glass mode

I have a Bizhub c360 that is stuck in hour glass mode. I unplugged every option, usb, cat 5, adf, fax board and the HDD, I cleaned and re-seated memory Dimm and no change. I'm not even able to get into service mode. Is it the HDD? Any help would be appreciated.

Do yourself a favor and try starting it up with the nv board disconnected. in my experence if it took the flash, and the checksum was correct, the board is good. the nv board on this unit is reaching the battery life limit. do you have access to another nv to try in it?
