Claim:
A troubleshooted coin output method used in a coin dispensing and outputting machine comprising a machine main unit and a plurality of coin tubes arranged in a first group and a second group, said machine main unit comprising a coin dispensing unit, a coin hopper and a circuit module, said coin dispensing unit comprising a coin inlet, said coin hopper comprising a driver circuit, a plurality of motors, a plurality of coin-pushing modules and a plurality of sensors, said circuit module comprising multiple sets of sensors, a control circuit and a display unit, the troubleshooted coin output method comprising the steps of: (a1) starting initialization before coin output; (a2) counting the amount of coins to be outputted from said coin tubes subject to the amount of money to be given; (a3) executing a cross-allocation coin output action to output coins from said coin tubes; (a4) determining whether or not the cross-allocation coin output action has been done, and then proceeding to step (a5) if the action is not done, or step (a9) if the action is done; (a5) determining the normality of the function of a motor to move said coin-pushing module, and then returning to step (a4) if the function is normal, or proceeding to step (a6) if the function is abnormal; (a6) checking if all said motors are abnormal, and then proceeding to step (a7) if all said motors are abnormal, or step (a8) if all said motors are not abnormal; (a7) stopping the operation of the machine; (a8) stopping executing the action to output coins from said coin tubes, and then counting the remaining amount to be outputted, and then returning to step (a2); (a9) ending the coin output operation and returning to a standby mode.
