Not getting cold...

Thanks a lot for that information!!   Yes, the fan only started going once I gave it a spin.  I will try this tonight and get back to you!

Ok, I just got done testing it out after cleaning out and adding Silicon spray...  The fan still doesnt spin on its own, only when I give it a push first...  It looks like it wants to start moving by itself, but just can't.  The compressor feels/sounds like its running right.  I do believe that it might need some added freon...  
Do you think a new fan motor will fix the problem with the fan not working?  And if so what model of motor do I need for my VF-56 Square Top machine..

Hey

If the lower fan motor is not spinning. Take it out & replace it with a new one. If fact change both the uper & lower fan motors. Take the bad motor to you local AC supply house & get a new one for around $22. Do waste time trying to fix the old one.  Your system is just over heating & shutting down the compressor. While you have it apart clean the coils.

Where I live we dont have a AC Supply store, so is there anywhere online that I can purchase the upper and lower fan motors?

Contact Steve at the Soda Jerk works or Steve at Funtronics. The fans run around 26.00 bucks.

Thank you all for you help!
