Hey Everyone!
I just purchased a new to me D-2-A16. Gentleman said it wasn't running and it has some rust on the top from a water pipe leaking on it. I was worried it would just be an ice box if I couldn't get it running, but after some cleaning of contacts it fired right up and ran. I ran it for a little to see how cold it would get. I now have the top off of it and just read the ohms for the heater through the power plug technique (thank you turbokinetic ) that in the off position is reading at 400k off and so looks like I need to get a new heating unit. I also was able to find a tag inside that matches the model number (1496695) with a date of 1-27-32 (I noticed turbokinetic found in one of his videos). I am hoping this will run well all said and done as it is my first one and I gave the guy $40 for it when he was only asking $30 because I didn't have change).
Trying to figure out where to link pictures to so I can send.
I also took apart the handle because it had a lot of play and see a smaller broken spring in it and a loose metal bracket. Is there any how-to on rebuilding the handles?
Thank you!
Anthony
