Hey everyone,
So i finally got back into brewing..... and i just discovered my keezer no longer works!!! I had decided to bottle my beer anyways but now its just bothering me that i cant get it to work. I run it with a ranco controller. I've checked the wiring on the controller several times to make sure its correct, so here's the problem: The freezer turns on since the sensor reads that it is warmer than the set temp, the controller says its on, i can hear it switch on, and i can hear the freezers compressor running....... but it doesnt get cold. I let it run for a few hours and it RAISED one degree. (im assuming from the heat of the motor running). What could be the problem? The last time I used it was for a party about 4-5 months ago and it worked then. Any ideas? It just sucks because I bought it off craigslist on the cheap so its not really worth putting much money into repairs. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
