Ricoh Aficio MP301 with SC672

[rapidocument]

Hi guys

Got this little machine Ricoh MP-301 showing SC672
As per the manual I checked the Controller board and Dimms but still the same

The machine warms up and produces some (5, 6 copies) but no more and then stalls.

Any other idea is welcomed.
Thanks,

Faxboard?

Hi there!
Check the connectors & cables from controller/LCD-screen, and very important. a complete fw-update.

I had the exact same fault it was the controller board.
Check to see if theres other sc errors in the history, mine had sc802 I believe

Check the condition of the operation panel and its connector

It's an option, and required for certain functions.

I'm having same issue the only thing I haven't t ried is op-panel and harnesses. I found part number for op-panel and usb harness but not the grey wiring harness that goes to BICU. I scoured the parts manual. did any of you order both harnesses? if so do you know the numbers? Thanks

We've had two of them do the same thing and both times replacing the fax board took care of it. SC672's can be very tricky to troubleshoot. Take the fax out of it and see if it still codes. My guess is it won't. Hope this helps.

Harness part numbers are on the point to point circuit diagram but I doubt very much if that is the problem. My experience is it that if you have unplugged the HDD and the fax and it still has the problem you are looking at a new ops panel or controller.

The harness parts numbers are on the point to point diagram. Ok

I have had a bucket load of these and the issue has been the main drive motor shorting out the controller.
