Default Fanuc Tool change strangness

Sharp with Fanuc OiMC. I have one program that runs with 4 tools.

I have started to get a stoppage at the last tool change. This only happens once in a while.

The program stops at the tool change line
T8M6

The cycle start light stays lit and the machine stays in cycle.

This of course is intermittent.
I have other parts that run with as many tool changes that run just fine.

This is always from tool 5 to tool 8.


I solved this by ditching the tool change at the end of the program.


What gives?

Any ideas?
