    Does it say which cover is open?
    It's 106 miles to Chicago. We've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses.

    Hit it.

      It's possible you will need to take the paper feed unit out at tray 2. There's a sensor flag that can get knocked out of position. What door is showing open?

        I would hope before replacing all that stuff you checked the flag for the paper end sensor on the feed unit, if a tray is reading empty the flag is probably out of position. If your getting a cover open msg it could be either switch for whichever door is showing open. Faulty door switches can cause irregular problems else ware.

            I would check for a blown fuse on the power supply for 24v that drives the paper lift.
            The same fuse probably powers the door switch.
            I don't know the fuse #, but it should be in the blown fuse indications in the service manual.
            Why do they call it common sense?

            If it were common, wouldn't everyone have it?

              That ring's a bell from the old FT4527 series.
              Does the machine have a paper bank or any other accessories attached to it?

                there are 2 boards that control the paper feed/ lift I think on this machine they are at the bottom of the copier at the rear we change one once ony to find out there are 2 iob type boards
