Title: Cooling help in Kalamazoo Post by: Spartazoo on July 06, 2014, 09:41:22 am I have a CS 64 D that I think needs a freon recharge. I am having a hard time finding someone in the Kalamazoo, MI area to help. By chance, does anyone know of a refrigeration service place that may be able to help?
Thanks! Title: Re: Cooling help in Kalamazoo Post by: Kilroy on July 06, 2014, 09:59:52 am Johnnie G is on the east side of the state. He's a member here.

If I can't get anyone to look at it here, I will be dragging it over to see you. I have more money into this than I should, so it needs to work! LOL But I have wanted one of these for 35 years!

This board is great! Everything runs and it has a new thermostat. Both the compressor and and the condenser fans run. I can hear the compressor start when it is plugged in. It sounds and acts like it is running properly yet it only blows warm air. I have left it running for an hour or two to see if it will cycle and "kick in". No luck.

Title: Re: Cooling help in Kalamazoo Post by: MoonDawg on July 09, 2014, 09:51:16 am Kilroy is right. It's at a time like this you have to think of economics.
The Cavalier 80 uses the same compressor, lighted sign and coin door as the 64. http://swmi.craigslist.org/app/4542084653.html (http://swmi.craigslist.org/app/4542084653.html) Title: Re: Cooling help in Kalamazoo Post by: Spartazoo on July 09, 2014, 02:24:58 pm Thanks for the link. This has been an expensive lesson to say the least.
