Hi all,

Ramp diverter stopped working on my WCS. Opened it up, realized it was in pieces. Tech manual is a bit hard to decipher on this one.

Attached pictures - diverter mechanism, parts that were on the floor of the machine, 2 tech diagrams.

What am I missing here?
Thanks!
Todd

You need a new spring link on the end of the plunger. Coil energizes, pulls plunger down, plunger is attached to the lever on the diverter by that piece of wire you found in the bottom. That should be a couple of wraps of spring wire to allow it to be flexible enough to not bind when the coil energizes.

I'm guessing I just have to go for the whole new plunger?
