Compressor does not come on

I have an older, 40's Westinghouse coke box, when I plug it in the compressor does not start.  The fan that circulates the air is running, but nothing in the lowerer unit.
Any ideas where I should start.

Thanks,
ckleinert

Hi there ckleinert, what model do you have? & can you post a picture of the compressor area?  it'd help a lot...JohnieG

here's the basic wiring diagram for your westinghouse chest cooler I copied from my manual.

I might add though if your not familar with refrigeration units, you might want to refer to Global compressors for help, I don't want you to harm yourself, or risk damaging your machine, or worse <!--emo&--><img src="http://soda-machines.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=''><!--endemo-->
