marwood Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 I have a Vendo VF546 but no manual in the machine and I can only find a Vmax manual online which is different. It has 4 fuses, 1x 10A, 1x 3A, 1x 2A, 1x1.25A (I'm can't remember the exact amperages but 1 x 10A and 3 lighter ones). The 10A fuse keeps blowing. If I replace the fuse the machine powers up for 5 minutes and then the fuse blows. Am I right in thinking that the compressor kicks in after about 5 minutes after start-up? So very likely the compressor is blowing the fuse? I was wondering what the 3 other fuses were for (they are not blown), or if somebody does have a manual that would be great.

AZVendor Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 You are correct that the compressor should start after the door is closed for about 5 minutes. Unplug the compressor and see if the machine still blows the fuse. If not, then it is probably a bad compressor. The other fuses are probably for the logic board, the peripherals and then maybe for an internal circuit such as a 5v logic circuit or maybe one for the motors.

marwood Posted May 20, 2022 Author Share Posted May 20, 2022 Thanks for confirming 😉 I will disconnect the compressor and try it again for comparison, didn't have enough time to fiddle with it today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vendo Mike Posted May 20, 2022 Share Posted May 20, 2022 SandenVendo Europe's (SVE) website would be the best source for that manual. To my knowledge, that machine was not sold domestically so we aren't / weren't set up to support it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
