Title: HELP!! Post by: redlegs on April 27, 2016, 02:00:35 pm OK I have a Cavalier C55-E machine that has functioned fine up until today. It has kicked the GFI breaker on the patio to which it has run on for the last year. Every time I plug it up it kicks the GFI breaker, no lights no compressor nothing. Where would I start. Any help would be sincerely appreciated.

Title: Re: HELP!! Post by: SodaShopNick on April 27, 2016, 03:41:01 pm Sounds like something is shorting out. As Moondawg has said I would check the power cord. Is it all original wiring or have you replaced the wiring harness at some point?
Title: Re: HELP!! Post by: redlegs on April 27, 2016, 08:04:29 pm Everything is original with the machine Sounds like a new cord is first??

Creighton Title: Re: HELP!! Post by: Slapshot42 on April 27, 2016, 09:30:16 pm It could also be a bad start / overload relay in the compressor. If that is the case the original relay can be removed and replaced with a 3 to 1 found at Funtronics or Soda Jerk Works.

The insulation gets brittle and will fall off causing random shorts. Title: Re: HELP!! Post by: redlegs on April 28, 2016, 07:18:58 pm Hey guys THANKS!!
