cvending Posted August 18 Share Posted August 18 Went to my location and found the inside of my machine covered with moisture. I assumed it had overheated. Waste bucket was not full. Temp sensor displays correct temp. Temp set at 185 degrees (FD machine). Cleaned machine. 2 days later same thing. Crane has techno idea but will pass myt situation on to lead tech for a possibl;e answer. 3 hrs--- no answer-- shocking. ASny ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZVendor Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 It sounds like it's overheating. It might only last for a short time and has cooled to normal by the time you get there. Do make sure your exhaust fan is running and it's filter is clean. You could also have a bad tank lid gasket. Maybe replace the triac to rule that out. While it's solid state and when it fails it stays failed maybe it's iffy? That or a bad relay board. I'd also replace the thermostat to be safe.

cvending Posted August 19 Author Share Posted August 19 Thanks for the insight AZ. I have changed the Triac, exhaust fan is working, cabinet fan is working, no leaks. I did lower temp setting yesterday. Decimal point disappears when water gets to set point. Temp sensor seems to be working properly but will try that next Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vendo Mike Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 A leaky tank lid gasket seems the most reasonable spot for steam to be leaking out and collecting on the walls, cooling and condensing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cvending Posted August 21 Author Share Posted August 21 I will be visiting the account again tomorrow. I kind of doubt the gasket as it would then be a constantbuild up of moisture. But I am up for anything. Ifg I learned nothing else over the years... Don't rule out anything!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vendo Mike Posted August 21 Share Posted August 21 That's the fun part about repair. You never really know what you're getting into that day but you can bet it'll be sticky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
