kt86x3 Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Looking for parts for my La Crosse Pepsi machine, model 168-5. Specifically, the locking mechanism does not "deal" the door closed right....Think I need new lock. Also, suddenly, none of my "empty" indicators light up. Need bulbs? Something else? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Whee can I buy parts, manual, etc Thanks. Sentimental reasons.....would rather repair than replace.

rmorris1953 Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 More than likely you will have to find a old one to rob parts of. Is it a can or old bottle style? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kt86x3 Posted June 28, 2015 Author Share Posted June 28, 2015 It is a can machine. So....ebay, craigslist, swap meets, etc will be my only hope? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmorris1953 Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 My guess. Those haven't been around for a long time.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZVendor Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 You might be able to use some form of standard door lock handle. Post a photo of yours and the issue it has and we'll see if it's a standard T-handle. Does the machine still vend okay with the sold out lights not working or does it continue to vend when the columns are empty? This might not be a sudden problem but may have always been there and you didn't know it because you never let a column run out of soda. You can also post questions on something this old at http://www.colamachines.com/forums/index.php?PHPSESSID=20c57db0c1a32ce8f635df29e0fd6b20& and see if someone there knows anything about it.
