E004-002 on iR C3220

Hi, error code comes out every time I pull out the fixing feeder assembly whenever there is a jam.
so far I've only changed the fixing unit but still shows the same problem so I'm thinking it is not a
fault on the fixing unit.

E004 The protection circuit of the fixing unit is faulty.

-0002 An open circuit of the temperature detection thermistor inside the non-contact
thermistor is detected for 500 msec continuously.

Check PS5, Fixing Feeder open/close sensor.


Open the fixing feeding unit drawer.

2. Open the upper left vertical pass door and remove the side cover and vertical pass door.

3. Remove the upper left vent cover.

4. Remove the four screws and the connectors for the vertical pass assembly and lift the unit out of the machine.

5. Note how the fixing unit connector 'A' (at the top rear of the fixing assy) makes electrical contact with connector 'B', and how it also is used to actuate the fixing unit open/closed switches msw5 & msw6 'C'.





6. Clean the sensor PS5, also check the switches for continuity using your volt/ohm meter, replace one or both if necessary and adjust the leaf spring actuators so that switches msw5 and msw6 deactuate BEFORE the fixing feeding connector breaks contact when the drawer is pulled out. The switches should actuate and deactuate pretty close to the same time.

NOTE: Be sure the power is removed from the machine prior to this procedure and make sure to clean any toner and paper dust from the connectors, switches, and sensors of the fixing feeding drawer assembly prior to reassembling.

Screwtape has the answer, I run into this from time to time, and a simple blast of air at the sensor and switches has always cleared up my problems with that issue.
