SC 442 CODE

Re: SC 442 CODE

ok so i went back with a tested ITB drive motor and photo sensor.
After swapping out it still coded sc442 so i pulled ITB unit and removed cleaning unit and
tested again,no good,
I was able to get a single copy pass after mucking around but still only fuser motor would spin,no ITB motor nor 4 drum/dev motors.
After going thru the parts manual I see that odd motor above drum/dev motors is the contact motor.
So i pull both motor and photo sensor above it and install and now all is working............I only have a hand full of these in the field
but they are solid designs...

That would be the on-off motor that I referred to in my first reply.

Re: SC 442 CODE

thanks to be honest i found very little info in the manual i had.
And the contact motor unit "I think" the sensor is enclosed the housing and
cant be accessed unless you take it all apart.
You cant test anything as once you close the front door it codes out.

Fixing these things is not as easy as many of my customers think. Some customers think we just change feed tires and drums.

I have had customers who thought all I needed to do was wave my magic wand over their machine. Of course that was back in the days of estats.

I would be bored if i was just a pm parts replacer..
I also hate when i cant fix a machine on the 1st go.
I am lucky where if needed i could pull whole assemblies if i dont see
where the faulty part is.
The contact motor unit looks like the old aficio 220 paper lift motor,a plastic
housing wth 2 screws to mount it and an opening for the slotted shaft to fit inside,
