I purchased the above Wine Cellar which has discontinued working due to over heating. It was purchased at Home Depot in July 07 and the warranty card sent in. Shortly after installation a "squeaky" noise began occurring. Service was called in May/June 08 (Ref # 41799- Sears Svc). They could not decide which motor (dual) was at fault. A motor was ordered and they adjusted the fittings etc which stopped the "squeaky" noise. The new motor was "not" installed due to not being able to determine "which" motor was at fault. In April 10, the wine cellar began to overheat and cooked the contents of the cooler. Now we are unable to use the wine cellar. How should I proceed with this problem?

First question, do you have power to the unit and the cooling fan is not working? If this is the problem then sounds like one of the two fuses in back panel has burnt out.

Mine is 11 months old - pooling water on right (which is theside i keep colder for beer/soda/water), also my glass door on right has water between panes, I just called franklin (everstar) and they say a service guy will call in 5 days... I hope.
Did you get help and are you 'happy' with the service done?

All cooler have a condensor and it does need to clean out from time to time , when the cooler doesn't work -doesn't cool- this is the first thing to look for clean it and see how it goes, it is a normal maintainance to keep the cooler working . God Bless and have a nice day

I returned our unit to Home Depot with relative ease... I think they were all aware there is a problem with these units.
They refunded the full purchase price (even though I was well past the 12-month warranty period). I put the money toward a GE Profile unit that's a little bigger - more expensive, yes; but it works, priceless!

Viking wine coolers are made by Marvel.They all had issues with freezing the contents. If you replace the electronic cold control system it will be fine.If you don't, it will freeze the wine popping the corks and leaking in the unit.If you get the parts from Marvell they are much cheaper.
