Eject Clamp Failure (Eject Clamp Home Sensor) Troubleshooting Procedure
Step Actions and Questions Yes No
1
Check the Eject Clamp operation.
Rotate the Eject Clamp Motor.
Does the Eject Clamp move smoothly?
Go to Step 2. Correct the
installation.
2
Test the Eject Clamp Home Sensor.
Run the Service Diagnostics Eject Clamp
Home Sensor test.
Does the sensor change state?
Go to Step 8. Go to Step 3.
3
Check Eject Clamp Sensor Harness
connection.
Are P/J8324 and P/J8302B connected?
Go to Step 5. Connect and go
to Step 4.
4
Print a Test Print.
Does the error still occur?
Go to Step 5. Problem solved.
5
Check Eject Clamp Sensor Harness
continuity.
1. Disconnect P/J8324 and P/J8302B.
2. Check for continuity at the following:
P/J8324-3 <=> P/J8302B-6
P/J8324-2 <=> P/J8302B-7
P/J8324-1 <=> P/J8302B-8
Are these conductive?
Go to Step 6. Repair the Eject
Clamp Sensor
Harness.
6
Check for +5 V to the Eject Clamp Home
Sensor.
Is there +5 V across J8302B-8 <=>
J8302B-6 on the Finisher Main PWB?
Go to Step 7. Replace the
Finisher Main
PWB
(
page 3-248).
7
Check the Eject Clamp Home Sensor
signal.
Does the voltage across P8302B-7 <=>
P8302B-6 on the Finisher Main PWB
change when the sensor is blocked?
Replace the
Finisher Main
PWB
(
page 3-248).
Replace the Eject
Clamp
Home
Sensor
(
page 3-175).
