Title: Get this out of my basement.......
Post by: kbareit on August 08, 2012, 03:12:08 pm
I was fixing a walk in cooler at a bar and saw this machine in the basement. I asked the owner about it and he told me I could have it, just get it out of my basement. I checked it out and it is a Vendo H90A and appears to have all the parts. It needs a new cord so I didn't see if it runs. I have a few pics and want to see what anyone thinks.

                                           Thanks,Ken

I got it home and checked the wiring out and the main cords were bad. I removed the refer unit and tested each component and found a bad condenser fan motor and replaced it and then found the start relay and overload on the compressor were bad. I installed a Supco 3in1 and it ran and got cold. I washed everything out and will reassemble later, have some more pics.

Should restore very nicely!  Must have been a bear to get up the stairs and into your truck.
