Ice Cream Makers - Page 9 - Recent Questions, Troubleshooting & Support
I have a taylor ice cream machine thats keeps a constant beep even when ice cream is ready model 339-27
I'm not 100% on this model but here goes....
A "beeping" tone will sound to alert you
of a fault.
To discontinue the tone, access the Operator
Menu and enter Option B. Correct the fault, then press
the OFF (<--) key, and the tone will stop.
FYI Fault Description
(Option B)
This option lists any faults detected by the control and
allows the operator to clear them from the system.
When a fault is detected it will be displayed on the
second line of the LCD. Pressing the MENU/SEL key
will display the next fault found or return the display to
the Operator Menu if no additional faults exist. If the
OFF key is pressed when a fault is displayed, all faults
that have been corrected will be cleared from the LCD
upon returning to the Operator Menu. To return to the
Operator Menu, press the MENU/SEL key.
for 337.....
Screen display.....
The POWER SWITCH OFF screen indicates that the
power switch is in the OFF position.

The normal operating screen will display the current
mode of operation and the level of mix in each mix
hopper. (The power switch is in the ON position.)

Operator Menu
_________________________________
The Operator Menu allows the operator to access
operational information and to set non-critical
functional parameters. The Operator Menu also allows
access to the Service Menu. (Note: Only service
technicians who know the access code may use the
Service Menu.)

Service Menu
Pressing the OFF (<--) key will move the cursor one
position to the left. Pressing the STBY (-->) key will
move the cursor one position to the right. Both keys
include the "wraparound" feature. This means that
when the cursor reaches the end of the option, any
further movement in the same direction causes the
cursor to "wraparound" (to be placed at the opposite
end of the option listing)
here's the manual if you don't have it....

Best to you hope this helps a little
What is A1, A2 referring to on the machine display panel
If it is the lower display with the 2 green digits, then that is referring to hours of service since last brush clean cycle. It is just a timer. Once it reaches 99, it start to use letters and numbers, so A1 would be 101 hours since last brush clean. b1 would be 111 hours and so on. To clear this the machine must recognize a brush clean cycle. the next time you clean your freezer door, make sure the power switch is off. it will display a 5 minute timer and 4 temperature readings. All 4 of those temperature readings must be above 60 degrees Fahrenheit and remain above 60 for 5 minutes. If at any point the temps drop below 60, the timer will reset. The freezer door must remain off the machine during this time. Once the timer reaches 0, the machine will enter a Unit Cleaned state and you can reassemble the machine.
I have a 754 Taylor soft serve machine and the mix freezes up on one side in the bin
I am assuming that it is the left side that is freezing up? Is there a large disparity in temperature from the left side to the right? Your machine monitors the temperature on the right side hopper and that will determine the temp of both sides. If there is a large temperature difference between the two sides then it may be that you are low on refrigerant. You may have enough refrigerant to cool the left side but not the right side and since the machine only monitors the right side, it wont shut off the mix refrigeration system which could cause the left side to freeze up.
I have a Taylor C707-23 that is freezing the product in the barrel and not dispensing. Then the drive motor trips. Had the sensor probe changed same thing.
If this is an ongoing problem that you have had for a while, it sounds as though your viscosity may be set too high. You can adjust the viscosity by removing the 4 screws that hold the face plate on. You will see 3 potentiometers. You want the left most potentiometer. It Should be labeled "Viscosity". You need a tiny screwdriver to turn it. Turn it counter clockwise about 1/16th of a turn. If your Ice Cream is already frozen, You will have to let it cycle a few times before the ice cream reaches consistency. If its liquid, then you will know as soon as the machine finishes the initial freeze down cycle.
If this is a new problem, then it is highly likely that your beater motor is going bad. To check this you would want to test the amperage of the motor when you initially draw product from the machine. A single phase 1.5HP motor in the taylor ice cream machines should not draw more than 7 amp on an initial draw right after freeze down. Its normal to draw around 6 amps then drop for a few second. In order to trigger the reset, the beater motor has to draw more than 6.3 amps for an extended period of time. Your reset may be set higher than 6.3 but that is average.
