Hey everyone,
I have a Danby Dual Tap kegerator that my wife got for me for my birthday 2 years ago, so the factory warranty has expired and I have contacted Danby with my issue but they have not responded yet, so here I am seeking help from fellow homebrewers.
Here it is...
I noticed earlier today that my kegerator seemed to not be as cold on the inside as before and that it didn't seem to be running. I removed the kegs, found a little bit of standing water around the drain hole area so I cleaned that up.
I unplugged the machine and pulled it away from the wall so I could check it out. The compressor and other components are cool to the touch. The drain pain that sits directly above and is attached to the compressor was full of water and I noticed what looked like a wad of white gum formed over the underside of the drain hole. I scraped at it with a screw driver and it was hard and crusty, seemed to be calcium build up. I cleared the hole with some warm water and pbw and there are no obstructions in the drain hole now.
I plugged the machine back in and it seems as if it's not turning on now.
Can anyone tell me if it seems like something may have blown out or if it needs anything replaced to get it back in working order before my St. Patrick's Day party coming up soon?
Any and all help will be appreciated.
Thank you in advance 🍻
