i have had problems like this in the past. often it is due to the sensor on one of the popup pins not registering the pin as being down. the machine will not opperate if it thinks the popup pins are still up. give the pins a little flick, and if that doesn't work, maybe adjust the sensor a hair (very very small adjustments). this has solved the problem most of the time for me.
