<div>No advice on the emptying of the slots. I'll leave that to
Bob.<br>

<div>Can you take a photo if you get an opportunity of the
compliance plate on the front of the machine (bottom right
corner) and the original circuit diagram inside the machine
door? That might provide some clues if we need to source a
replacement.<br>

<p>I'll be in over the next couple of days, so can poke around
for info. But I don't want to do too much touching of the
electronics. What's the best way to go about emptying it
whilst powered off?<br>

<pre class="qt-moz-quote-pre">So the really tricky thing about the refrigeration unit on the coke
machine is that it's 110V. It has a large internal transformer to step
down from 230V to 110V. When I did the rebuild+service (8/9 years ago
now!?) I had a look around to see what would be involved in getting the
whole refrigeration unit swapped out. It's...not easy. I couldn't find
anyone who could do it as a custom job, and certainly nothing off the
shelf that would suit. Knowing a little more these days, it might be worth
chasing someone who does coolrooms for a living to take a look at it.
If you think it might be the start capacitor then we should leave the
machine off until someone with a multimeter can check it out, though I
would have expected it to trip the circuit breaker if the motor were
stalling on startup. Could also be the thermostat relay contacts have
finally kicked the bucket, which would explain the intermittent operation.
Either way I think we should empty it of stock to make testing easy and
leave it off for now.

There was a faint odour of capacitor when I restocked it on Saturday. Bob might have photos of the compressor from during the great rebuild.
Next time someone passes the clubroom if they can take a photo of the compliance plate; that might be helpful to identify what our replacement/service options are.
