Title: Vendolator vf 90
Post by: on February 04, 2004, 07:37:23 pm
Hello,

I have a Vendolator VF 90 B-D, square top Pepsi machine that will not cool. The fan runs and that's about it. Is there a service/repair manual available for this model? Does anyone know of someone who does work on the compressor on this unit? I appreciate any help. Thanks,

Hank

Hi Hank, & Welcome!  the compressor deck on the V90 should have a seperate plug on a short line cord going into the junction block on the wireharness of your machine, unplug it & try just plugging the compressor into a seperate extension cord (of the correct size 16 gauge or better) & see if the compressor even trys to start, or does it seem to humm, then "click" then after a few seconds try to start again? as it might just be a sticky compressor (if it's been sitting around unused a while.) or it may just be a defective start/run relay.
& you might want to give eric at Global a jingle to get a better Idea what's-what...JohnieG

Hank,

  If you will call me with the info on the compressor tag, I probably have a relay and overload that will work for that compressor. Give me a call and I'll mail it to you.

Hey Hank,

I'm sure Eric can help you but I'm just down the road from you in Spartanburg. I do repair on some restored Coke machines around town and own a couple of my own. I sent you an e-mail so you can give me a call if you would like some  help from a refrigeration repair co. locally.
