MP6001 with SR4030 finishe and punch, "empty punch container" message does not clear.

[Desert Rat]

The empty punch bucket message will not clear. I have cleaned the sensor and re-seated the connectors on the punch unit board and
the finisher control board. I don't have my infra red sensor to check for the light.
It has worked fine for almost a year
Also I get a message about "cannot punch this size or way" I will have a closer look tomorrow.
Has anyone else had any experience with the punch?

Thanks

See if you can check sensor in input mode.

I had to replace the sensor on one.

I probably should've just stayed a little longer, but I was having trouble finding it in the book.
and now I have located the information in the manual for the main frame.
I think I'll have a look for the service manual for the punch. It is type 3260 B702.

Thanks

Had a tech support call last month on the same prob. It was the HP sensor of the punch unit. It turned out, the seat where the sensor is installed got deformed.
