I HAVE ONE OF THESE COOLERS I HAVE REPAIRED MY UNIT BY CAREFULLY PULLING OUT EACH EVAP COIL AND SANDING THE RUSTY AREA AROUND THE SOLDER CONNECTIONS AND SOLDERING THEM WITH A PROPANE TORCH GLAZING THE LINES WITH SILVER SOLDER AND FLUX. THEN AROUND ON THE BACK OF THE UNIT IT HAS 2 VALVES THAT CONTROL THE FREON GAS FLOW/ CUT THE COPPER LINES THAT GO TO THE 2 VALVES AND CAREFULLY BEND THE TUBING AND RESOLDER THE TWO LINES BACK TOGETHER WITH A HOMEMADE COPPER TUBING , BY ROLLING COPPER AROUND A SCREWDRIVER FASHIONING A TUBE TO CONNECT THE PIPES TOGETHER, RESOLDER THE PIPES SO THE FREON WILL NOW FLOW FREELY INTO EACH COIL. THEN RECHARGE THE UNIT WITH A CAN OF PAG 1 OUNCE OIL AND 2 OUNCES OF FREON 134A. RUN UNIT TEST FOR LEAKS WITH A SPAY BOTTLE AND SOAP WATER. YOU CAN OBTAIN A SADDLE VALVE FOR RECHARGING REFRIGERATORS AND INSTALL IT ON THE COMPRESSOR TUBE THAT IS COMING OUT OF THE COMPRESSOR AND IS WELDED SHUT BY FACTORY WHEN BUILT. CHAR4GE THE UNIT WITH 3.75 OUNCES OF 134A AND 1 OUNCE OF PAG OIL TO REPLENISH COMPRESSOR OIL FROM DISCHARGEING UNIT! REPAIR AS DIRECTED AND BOTH SIDES WILL REACH A 36 DEGREES. THE UNIT WILL NOW COOL TO 36 AND SHUT OFF BOTH SIDES ARE NOW WORKING AS 1 UNIT AND COOLING EFFICENTLY. THE VALVES GET STUCK AND WONT ALLOW FREON TO PASS THEN 1 VALVE LEAKS AND THE OTHER WONT OPEN. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS UNIT THIS IS THE BEST AND CHEAPEST REPAIR BY DAVID MAYHALL. [email protected] THE FIXIT MAN!

SOURCE: U-Line no longer cooling

This sounds like the thermostat is the problem. I wouldsuggest touching the compressor at the back of the unit to see if it is hot or cold. If it is hot then you have probably have power down to the compressor, if it is cold you could (if capable) bypass the thermostat to see if it kicks in. Hope this helps.

SOURCE: maytag refmodel number mff2557hew

sounds as if perhaps the fan in the freezer is not circulating air up to refrig sect. pretty common issue, if you pull out freezer door youll be able to hear the fan on the back wall, behind the vent on top sect of freezer. that cover pops right off with a pry of the screw driver.. heres the part number if indded that is the issue 12002744 comes with instuctions on how to install

SOURCE: Everstar Beverage/Wine Cooler HDBC36ID not cooling

Sorry to break it to y'all, but Everstar went out of business (probably bankrupt). There's nothing filing a lawsuit would do now.

Marvel 61wc wine cooler turns on, but doesn't cool

If you can hear the compressor running and there is no cooling happening your unit has either lost it's refrigerant due to a leak or the compressor is completly worn out (or both). If you just hear the condenser fan running (air blowing), then maybe the compressor just has bad electricals (starting relay, overoad, run capactor) or it has developed a bad winding and will need to be replaced.

If you know you have lost refrigerant the repair will be quite costly and you should consider replacement. If you feel it is a failure of the small electrical parts for the compressor, repair would be more cost effective.

You can get further trouble-shooting assistance and order parts direct from the factory at 800-223-3900.

You can look up a local servicer on their web-site at www.lifeluxurymarvel.com
Should you desire to attempt electrical repair yourself, reply to me and I will provide further troubleshooting assistance or you can contact Marvel Customer Service at the number above. Good-Luck, Subdriver

Everstar Beverage/Wine Cooler HDBC36ID not cooling

I returned our unit to Home Depot with relative ease... I think they were all aware there is a problem with these units.

They refunded the full purchase price (even though I was well past the 12-month warranty period). I put the money toward a GE Profile unit that's a little bigger - more expensive, yes; but it works, priceless!
