Apple Leisure Posted March 16, 2018 Posted March 16, 2018 A customer moved it out of the lunch room temporarily and plugged it into an extension cord, which made the machine go haywire intermittently. I took everything perishable out and unplugged it when I saw that, but someone plugged it back in. Anyway, damage was done because it won't try to cool now. The decimal point is on, as if it were cooling, but no. I'm hoping it's just a fuse.
AZVendor Posted March 17, 2018 Posted March 17, 2018 They probably blew the logic board from a low voltage brown-out caused by the current drop over a long extension cord.
Apple Leisure Posted March 17, 2018 Author Posted March 17, 2018 I'm not disagreeing AZ, but I should have mentioned that the control panel seems fine. It's just the compressor won't turn on. Still think it's the board?
AZVendor Posted March 17, 2018 Posted March 17, 2018 If the display and pricing, coin mech and validator all work then the board is probably okay. You need to check into the refrigeration triac and the interface PCB that switches the triac. If you hear the compressor click on but not start then the compressor has gone bad, which is a very good possibility as well.
Apple Leisure Posted March 17, 2018 Author Posted March 17, 2018 I've had to replace that triac before. That's a good thought. Thanks.
