Why your Crane Merchandising Systems vending machine is won't start

Known Crane Merchandising Systems vending machine weak points

- refrigeration compressor and sealed-system failures on cold-drink units
- vend/delivery motor, spiral and cup-drop mechanism faults
- control board, media touchscreen and cashless-reader communication errors
Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Do this first — it takes two minutes: check the outlet and breaker, and confirm the door is fully closed and latched — many units won't start at all with a door safety switch tripped. Also, try a different outlet if one's available, to rule out a dead circuit rather than the unit itself. If none of that changes anything, a control board fault has to be tested with a meter against the service manual — swapping the board on a guess is an expensive way to be wrong.
