Buhlazen Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 (edited) The Vendo 511 has lights that work and a compressor that works, but I can't get it to turn on to access settings and have it be usable. Maybe the problem is that I plugged the machine into a low wattage power supply. Never got to see if it turned on in the first place so I'm not sure if this is the issue, but would like to know if this is a common problem. Heard the fan sound for a split second and then it turned off (did this a few times). Also it is leaking after leaving the machine on. For stacking cans, it says the back spacer should be at 8 and 3 deep, but that only fits 2 cans + vertical cans. I'm not sure if I'm supposed to do 2 rows then stack a few vertically or if I should move the back spacer to accommodate 3 cans. And, not sure if each row should be facing a certain direction (I know in some machines one row faces forward while the other backwards, in the manual for Vendo it shows the cans lined up on the gauge bar facing back so guessing that is what it is) Edited August 30, 2022 by Buhlazen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tblake05 Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Leaky compressor? Like Freon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buhlazen Posted August 30, 2022 Author Share Posted August 30, 2022 @tblake05 It is creating puddles of water next to the machine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZVendor Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 (edited) Missing drain pan or the hose just isn't in the drain pan. Do which machine do you really have? You've said 511, 521, etc. Those model numbers span 20 years and I don't think there is a 521. Just a 621 and 721, maybe an 821.

Buhlazen Posted August 30, 2022 Author Share Posted August 30, 2022 My mistake, 511. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZVendor Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 You can plug a machine into a low wattage, not low voltage, outlet if you keep the compressor turned off. Then you are supplying the normal 110v side of the machine. On the V511 there are two fuses on the metal panel to the left of the condenser. One is for the power to the transformer that is for the logic board, coin mech and validator. You must replace it with a same model fuse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buhlazen Posted August 30, 2022 Author Share Posted August 30, 2022 Thanks, I'll check the fuses out. The voltage is 110v and the machine needs 115v. The compressor was on, I think that might have done it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZVendor Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 110 to 120v is fine for it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buhlazen Posted August 31, 2022 Author Share Posted August 31, 2022 Okay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buhlazen Posted August 31, 2022 Author Share Posted August 31, 2022 (edited) There were unplugged wires behind the fuses, plugged them in and everything works great. Thanks Edited August 31, 2022 by Buhlazen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
