Hello Gents,

I just bought this a few months ago and it's in great cosmetic shape. I replaced the power cord and cleaned the contacts in the controller. The start relay appear to be working fine but once started will only run about 15 seconds and the compressor trips off. Turbokinetics and I have done some troubleshooting and it needs the motor cleaned up.

Located in Moneta, Va. $80

Hello
And by cleaned up ? Not sure what you mean monitortop.freeforums.net/thread/943/d2-a16

THIS IS one i still have if you need parts but the motor is shorted out. I’m keeping the handle and the racks . But everything else
is up for sale or trade . Looking for a ball top door .

The motor on this one is internally shorted and needs to be professionally re wound in order for it to work again. This would necessitate the cutting open of the weld on the compressor to be able to remove the compressor and shorted out motor.

I have to keep telling myself that this is a healthy addiction!

It is all in the name of preserving and enjoying these wonderful machines.

Ok mine is shorted out also ,sorry to hear yours is too.
I know the door latches are in demand, but I have another dr that I’m keeping it for .

on a side note a person I haven’t seen on the forum for a while made one for his dr (timesweld) was his name on the forum
you would have to go back a few years to find his post .
He seemed like he could make anything!
