Danby DKC645BLS Compact Beverage Cooler

Temperature on Keg Cooler (DKC644BLS) is dropping... (by 6 users)


posted by Thirsty on Jul 23, 2007


The temperature on my keg cooler is no longer being regulated. The temperature continues to drop below freezing temperatures for beer. In fact, it has reached 0 degrees.

Also, the LED and the temp. control panel on the front are no longer functioning. These problems occurred at the same time. Are they interelated? Can I fix them myself with replacement parts. If so, what do I order and how do I install?

Hope some one can quench my thirst,
Thirsty

I couldn't get a service company to follow through so I had to order parts from the factory. All the parts are not here yet but "on the way"

Different model but same problem. Can't find replacement parts but will keep looking. Do I see a pattern developing here ?

Same thing happened to me

Comment by shaas, posted on Apr 20, 2008

My LED stopped allowing me to adjust the temperature setting with the soft touch keys. Shortly thereafter the unit started chilling to freezing temperatures. The LED reads "LE" and I do not even know what that means. I have looked and cannot find a way to order new parts. Any help on problem or parts would be appreciated.

Danby parts can be ordered by phone, (519) 837-0920 for Canada and (419) 425-8627 in the US. I spoke to a very knowledgeable lady and had the parts I needed (a simple thermostat) delivered to me within a week for about $17.00. A fifteen minute repair and my frozen beer problem is fixed. Hope this helps those with similar problems.

On danby beer coolers that you can't adjust the temp the problem is in the touch memebrane. moisture gets too the touchpad and stops it from responding. I can get the touch pad with the shipping and handling to you it is $22.75. - Erin 509-928-7176

I have the same unit and having the same problem. I called Danby and talked to a rep that said the problem is common. The problem is the display pad is bad and needs to be replaced. She said it is easy that even she could do it. The part can be ordered from them and total cost with shipping was under $9. 800-263-2629

Aren't the parts on the Danby covered for like 4 years? Why would you have to pay for replacement parts already
