NEVER use any kind of lubricant on the path that the coins go through. Just about any kind of lubricant will pick up dirt or lint very quickly and make a mess over time. This comment comes from 30 plus years(damn, that much?) experience in the coin vending business, of some kind or other. You can use silicon, such as WD-40, to clean the path way but then you have to remove all of the silicon. The best way to clean the coin paths is with warm, soapy water and a tooth brush. If there is any question of any residue being left on the coin mech, use alcohol to clean off that residue. Alcohol evaporates quickly and won't leave any residue behind.
If the mech is clean to the eye, and no residue can be felt with the fingers, go after some sort of alignment problem. See Kitty's post below. I've also had some mechs that didn't seat correctly in the machine, causing them to not be aligned correctly in a vertical position. Hence, gravity wouldn't make the coin drop.
Perhaps my decision to purchase a coin-operated washer is coming back to bite me. I was out of town all weekend, and came back to a note on my door, saying that the coin slot on the washing machine was jammed, and wouldn't turn on the washing machine, or pull out. The tenants said that they put in the correct amount of money (they had just gotten a new roll of quarters from the bank, even), and weren't trying to pull anything (i.e. putting the quarters in pantyhose to pull them back out, or a similar trick like that).

When the washing machine was brand new, the coin slot had been a little sticky, and was fixed by a simple dousing of WD-40. So, I figured that this would be a simple fix.

MORE THAN OIL
However, no amount of WD-40 and jiggling would get this coin slot to budge. One of my guy-friends came over to take a look at it with me and he too was stumped. It appeared at first as though one of the six coin slots was missing its coin — however, after further inspection with a flashlight, we discovered that there WAS a coin in that slot, but it had tipped to the side, and was preventing the coin slot from moving. A nickel?? Some sort of coin-like subway token??

ENTER THE X-ACTO BLADE
In order to fix the problem, we needed some way to push the tilted coin upright. A wire? A knife? There wasn't a lot of room to work with, but an x-acto blade, slid into the slot next to the coin, was able to move the coin upright. The coin slot went in, deposited its coins, and started the wash.

WHAT WAS THE CULPRIT?
I had emptied the coins from the washing machine while figuring out the problem, so that I could see exactly what had been sitting in the slot, jamming it up. When we pulled out the coin tray… it was a CANADIAN quarter! A Canadian quarter that was a slightly different size, a slightly different weight; just enough to cause the coin to tilt in the slot. What surprises me the most, though, isn't the fact that my Whirlpool doesn't accept Canadian quarters — the fact that the BANK is putting CANADIAN quarters in its rolls! Seriously! Aren't those supposed to be sent back up north, across the border???
