Title: Dixie narco Post by: on August 08, 2005, 10:06:57 pm A friend of mine picked up a Dixie-Narco machine, model # DNTC-350-10, serial # 0085 2755 C1. I think this machine is from the 80s, but just a guess. I can hear both cooling fans kick on, but only one for a short time. The machine does not cool at all. Does this sound like a low coolant issue? If so, how would you go about recharging the system? Any ideas would be helpful.

For starters: *Which fan turns off - the one inside, or the one by the compressor? *When both fans are running, is the compressor running? You may want to wear a glove, but touch it to see if it is vibrating. Start there and report back - also post a pic so that we can see exactly what model it is.

I sent you an e-mail. One thing I ment to ask, is the lower condenser a standard tube and fin coil or is it the newer, lint free, flow thru design? I have both in stock so no worries. It's an easy job to pull and replace. Should take about 10 minutes or so. Title: Dixie narco Post by: on August 10, 2005, 07:57:17 pm Thanks for the replies. I have to go back and check a couple of things on the machine before I can narrow the information you gave me down.
