Remove the MOTERCL connector 1 of the CU/PU board and check the following at the connector side. Short circuit between pin-5 . FG Short circuit between pin-6 . FG Short circuit between pin-7 . FG Short circuit between pin-8 . FG Replace the cable with the normal cable that normalizes the connection condition
Paper Hopping motor Remove the MOTERCL connector1 of the CU/ PU board and check that approx. 3.4Ω can be measured between pin-5 -pin-6 and pin-7 -pin-8 respectively at the connector side. Replace the paper hopping motor.
Paper feed clutch, registration clutch Check to make sure that the paper feed clutch or registration clutch works normally by using the [Motor & Clutch Test] of the self-diagnostic mode. Open the front cover so that the rollers can be seen to check. Replace the CU/ PU board, or replace the paper feed clutch or the registration clutch.
Clutch cable of paper hopping Check the connection condition of the cable.
