Author Topic: Cornditioner High Limit Thermostat Sean Falk Film Handler Posts: 9 From: Atchison, Kansas, USA Registered: Aug 2019 posted 12-22-2019 09:36 PM                     I have a Mach 5 Cretors 32oz(I believe) floor model popcorn machine and the high limit thermostat in the "Cornditioner" keeps getting tripped. Might work for a few days, might only work for one. Has anyone else dealt with this? Is there something I should do to fix it, or make it happen less often? It's not a huge problem to fix (just unscrewing a panel and pressing a button), but it's a pretty annoying.  |  IP: Logged Barry Floyd Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1079 From: Lebanon, Tennessee, USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 12-23-2019 08:59 AM                        I had the same thing happen in our Gold Medal machine several years ago. I simply replaced the thermostat. They are not expensive, and only have two wires. Ten minute job. Pull the existing thermostat and get the numbers off of it. Found mine on Amazon.  |  IP: Logged Jim Cassedy Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1661 From: San Francisco, CA Registered: Dec 2006 posted 12-23-2019 04:37 PM                     I had to replace one of those 'cornditioner" thermostats several years ago. I can't remember if I got the replacement part direct from Cretors or through a supplier, but it was easy to replace & also a good chance to give the entire machine a good clean-out.  |  IP: Logged Sean Falk Film Handler Posts: 9 From: Atchison, Kansas, USA Registered: Aug 2019 posted 12-24-2019 08:31 PM                     Just ordered the replacement, it was pretty cheap, like 22 bucks. Thank you guys for your help.  |  IP: Logged
