I just punchered a tiny hole on the side of the u shaped coil & all the freon blew out,wheres best place to replace that part. My kegerator is a summit sbc-500ss model. Heres a pic attached. Thx

Hi! if you don't have a hammer-screwdriver (what is the right name?) just use a puncher + hammer: on the side of the head first punch a small hole, so the tip of the puncher is well held on that spot/hole. Then carry on with the puncher a bit off-axis (of the screw), to cause the screw to rotate a bit to the left. Then carry on. Some WD40 can help too. I got some great results like that. Good luck!

You need a new start device if your compressor is not running/pumping.That is the box on the side of the compressor .If you can put your hand on the compressor to make sure it (compressor) is than you have a Freon leak. The small line copper coming off the compressor should be between 75 & approximately 85 if its not ho you have Freon leak somewhere.

No there isn't, there are many different hole punchers that make holes at different spaces apart and different countries use different hole spacings.

Wikipedia has a chart of all the different hole punchers. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hole_punch#Chart.5B3.5D

After 1700 shots it is recommended that both upper and lower punchers as well as all seals in the brew unit be replaced. These punchers are only plastic so they do get worn down after much use. You may also be experiencing more water in your drawer as water is leaking from around the capsule seal. This is also an indication that the seals and punchers should be replaced. Given where you go to have this fixed, the parts may cost less than $15.00.

It could be a freon leak, or the compressor is not staying on.  If you can hear a clicking sound coming from the back every couple of minutes, your compressor overload is kicking off.  More than likely you either have a freon leak, or a defective compressor. Check the warranty on your machine as many manufactures warranty the sealed system for much longer than the rest of the refrigerator.

This video I made how to change evaporator on Thermador refrigerator, which is just copy of of Build in Kitchenaid. Problem was that it was running, but ice cream never got frozen. I checked pressures, was low on freon. I checked evaporator coils - found out that defrost heater got deformed and was touching evaporator coils - so it burned holes, where freon started to leak.( I think it designed not best way). Defrost heater on this fridges way to close to evaporator coils. Check this video to get an idea what Im talking about. I hope That helps u to understand why this repair is so expensive and what causing it.

It can take a very long time to get a keg of beer down in temperature. The heat transfer from a keg is slow due to the lack of air circulation inside the keg. You should also check your condenser coils, make sure they are clean. Door gasket should also be in good repair. Hope this helps.

Modern window units intentionally do not allow the water to drain directly, they want the fan blade to sling the water on to the condensor (the coil that is outside) to aid in cooling actually helps the unit cool better in high outside temps, it also evaporates it this way, depending on where the hole was drilled it may be able to be repaired, if it was just a copper tube it will be less expensive than replacing the whole coil. Since its a relative inexpensive unit anyway the labor and freon may be more than its worth. Lesson learned dont drill a hole in the base it lowers it's efficiency and can lead to a punctured freon line.
