We've got a couple of 330A Schindlers that we grudgingly work on. The owner did not want schindler back, and we'd go and occasionally fix minor problems.
The building is an old age home, and the old ladies there were hit by the doors a few times.
We suggested the PanaChrome detectors with closing lights and voice warnings (might help).
Anyway a couple of our guys went over to install them, and must have touched a wire wrong. The doors would not open, and closed automatically, even without the open/close wires from the carIO bd to the Lust door drive. We wound up showing error 94. We replaced the car board, and the error went away, but the door continued to close no matter what. Today we replaced the Lust drive, and had a running car.
I asked the guys there to put the old car boad back in, just to make sure that it was actually bad. When they did this, they wound up showing a communication error, so they put the new board back in, and now we still have the same error.
The error log shows an Init error, regarding LON, and inside the error log it shows an 20000006. In the controller, there is no EBLON board, only an EBCom.
I can do a LON Test for service pin, and see the car board. The guys swear that they didn't touch anything in the controller, and I believe them.
After this long winded story, I guess I need to know what devices are typically on the LON in a 330A? It appears that something isn't talking, but I'm unsure what it could be.
We changed the car io board, and the errors went away, except that the doors would close on their own, and not open when commanded (this wound up being the Lust door drive).
We had the car running normal, then went back to try the original car io board, and then the LON problem popped up.
I cant see how the original car io board could have taken out communications, as it did communicate before we removed it.
We tried discharging the cap, and reseting with the car on MR inspect, but the LON error pops up on startup ever time.
We can see that the car io is communicating using the test LON menu, and hitting the service button on the car io.
I was thinking afer I left that maybe the selector talks via the LON buss? Maybe thats what isn't reporting in?
Halfpic: Thanks. I think I left it down with the power off. I'll find out when I get there.
The car was powered off for 4 days. I entered the machine room, pulled the processor board, and bled the cap for about 5 minutes. Rebooted on inspection twice, and the car came up with just a pressure switch error (car was on the springs at this point.
After running the car up, it returned to normal.
Thanks for all of the help guys.
Talk about temperamental!

yep sounds like a normal 330 😗 Glad to hear you got it up and running.
We had a set of Epoch II cars, and would always laugh when you logged in, and it said "Normal Thank goodness" 🙂
