anyone update a coinco BA50B bill accepter to take new currency?

This op asked me to get ready his american changer ac2004. Its fully working now, but it has a problem. Stick in a new $10 in the coinco BA50B validator and it dumps $20. It works fine will all other currency. Since it thinks $10 is $20, you cant lock $10 out. Has anyone updated one of these? Since its an old validator, should they just buy a new one?

I called american changers and they said call coinco. They want $52 for a new cable and $599 for a new MEI validator.

coinco says it may be upgradeable Serial #3903 or higher(need to check it). New mech would be about $450 with needed adapter.

I can sell you a tested and working Mars AE-2600, updated to take all current bills for $200.

You will have to buy the harness to go between the changer CPU and the DBA 9pin connector from them, however.
 
thanks, but I am sure they will want to go with new from coinco. Less hassle for me if it comes from 1 place. Orignally I was looking for a way to update their old unit, but it seems better to go new.
