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!

Completely understand... 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!

        Post the symptoms here on the board, JohnieG is a whiz, there's a chance you may not have to drag it anywhere.

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.

Unit has been checked out and the compressor is not pumping.  Needs a new one.  They are getting me a price...

I'd check CL for a donor machine. May be a less costly route

       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.

Thanks for the link. This has been an expensive lesson to say the least.
