Title: Help with wiring issue
Post by: on August 12, 2006, 08:16:54 pm
Hello all! I recently purchased a CSS-12-96 and went to work on getting it cleaned fixed and running. After some easy splicing and a little TLC, I plugged her in and the lights came on, the air started circulating and the change dispnser started tossing out all the old coins. Sadly though, the air never cooled down. I pulled the compressor and quickly saw a small disaster. It appears that a pack rat had gotten to the wiring harness in a horrid spot. It looks like an area where three power wires join into some sort of relay or fuse, but I can not make heads or tails of it. I'm so close to having cold bottles dispensing I can taste it, but this is a huge roadblock. Any help would be awesome. Schematic or good ideas welcome! Thanks in advance my new friends and fellow machine owners!

Paul

You only need to do some more splicing......those 3 chewed up wires. :)

Splice to what though? I've got three chewed through wires... Do they just go all together? That would seem odd to me...
