3005ac paper jams on double sided prints, e910 bridge exit sensor / adu door latch

[bjreally]

Hello, I’ve been working with this Toshiba eStudio 3005ac for a few years, now getting e910 and e510 paper jam errors. It works fine single sided prints to the exit tray, but double sided prints or using the booklet finisher, it often fails: paper crumples up as soon as it comes out the fuser, looks like it’s not making it in between the rollers near the paper exit/reverse section. Strangely, when it is working jam free to the exit tray destination, like 1 out of every 6 pages will actually be sent up to the bridge unit transports, where it stops and collects into an unordered stack instead of going to the exit tray or the finisher.
Pretty sure the paper jam errors started round the same time that the ADU door lever broke - the left notch that hooks the door close broke, so it is only held by the right hook, so the whole left side door now sticks out at an uneven angle. I’ve been pushing a chair/door to try to keep the door closed and flush which seems to get double sided working a third of the time if I’m precise enough, looks like ads lever is part #6LJ57393100 out of stock on PR anyone got another source or an extra? I’m wondering whether it’s a simple door latch replacement or if I do gotta start replacing sensors or the reverse gate solenoid or something. Any help appreciated, thanks!

Defiantly find a replacement latch...also the reverse gate warps, had a few updates, solenoid falls out, entire exit assembly had updates, cushions turn sticky, the white guide rollers holding springs mounts can break. I would see if you can get ahold of all the bulletins and see where your machine is at updated part wise. Once I got all mine out in the field fully updated, those types of jams mostly went away.
