Are your customers having trouble, or are you opening the coin door and dropping quarters through to test or rinse the bay when this happens? A Slugbuster II uses an infrared eye to see the coin pass through. It validates the coin electronically, but if sunlight shines on the eye it can't send a pulse credit.

If that's not the problem, swap the coin acceptor with another bay to see if the problem moves. The timer could be bad and not the acceptor.

If you have the slugbuster that opens up to clear jams be sure the latch is closed properly. This typically will make it miss coins as they fall through. If it takes exactly $3.00 each time after checking this I think I would look at that timer. As mep said, easiest thing to do is to move to another bay and see if it follows.
