FSI 3172 Freezing up - cost to fix? Or should I replace?


Recommended Posts

Hello, I have a FSI satellite drink machine, it is freezing up (I have pictures if it would help). I replaced the thermostat and that did not solve the problem. The drain is clear, there is plenty of space in the back, everything is clean, door seal looks good to me... 

So I it could still be a few things from the sound of it, not sure if they are things I can diagnose, low Freon, bad condenser, bad board etc.

Is there more troubleshooting I can do? Is it worth having someone come out to try and repair? I really hate to spend a bunch of money, I don't really want to put a full size machine in, really only one drink selection even sells. It would probably be cheaper for me to just give them free soda, but wouldn't be professional. 

Thoughts? Thank you in advance everyone has been helpful in the past and I appreciate it.

Low freon.  Have a certified tech with experience on that machine come to charge it.  The deck is a pain to remove but it has to come out to put gauges on it.
