VinoTemp (VT60GNV) Wine Cooler Logo
nena puentes Posted on Aug 16, 2009

My VinoTemp stopped working. When I opened the back cover there is a red and green LED light blinking really fast. What does that mean?

    Way to go Rico 2010. M/N VT12-TEDS. Symptom: Flashing red and green LED's, No display, No cooling, Clicking sound, Fan not running (slight oscillation but bare noticiable). Fix - Rico2010 hit it right on- change the cap.

This problem is typically found in the control board circuit. Probably the 1000MFD 16V Capacitor on the DC side of the PCB may be at fault. The Fix is to replace the capacitor which can be purchased at any Radio Shack for about $2.00. Procedure is to de-solder the the bad component and solder the replacement. This is a polarized component so pay attention the polarity when installing. Test the fix; Properly reinstall the PCB wiring, and Enjoy your Chilled Wine. Recardo.

    My green LED was no lit but my red one was flashing and clicking and the fans were not spinning. $1 1000uF 16V capacitor did the trick! Thanks Rico2010!

I have the 12 bottle cooler (VT12-TEDi) which had the same problem. The vinotemp website has troubleshooting pdfs which walk you through what to check. Rico2010 is correct that this problem is typically an issue with the DC side of the board. Look at the capacitors to see if any have the top blown on them. Google this for pictures, but sometimes when a capacitor goes bad the perforated silver top of the capacitor will either be broken open or slightly bulged. This was the case with the 1000uF 16V capacitor on my board. It was not very easy to see at first since it was just a very slight bulge. I ordered replacements for all of the capacitors for a few $$$.
The board requires de-soldering and re-soldering a couple of wires to switch it out so replacing a capacitor requires no additional effort and is a lot cheaper. Good point by Rico2010 - this issue is probably one of the capacitors and very easy to fix.

The red indicator light on my Vinotemp is solid but green light is out. It stays in perpetual cooling mode and doesn't limit out. Any ideas what is going on here?

You may want to change out the control board on that unit... if the red and green lights are blinking it's a sign that the control board has blown a fuse, you should be able to purchase them from Vinotemp for $34.95.
Vinotemps phone number is 800-777-8466.

The top light of the two is flashing green/red back and forth very fast and the light on the bottom is a solid red. how do I fix this so that way it will work normally

The steady lower light indicates the unit needs a new toner cartridge, MLT-D108S. Did you previously see this light blinking or blinking rapidly? (Those indicate the toner being low.) Replace the cartridge and check for any other error lights. Turn off the machine and let it cool. Then open the front cover and pull the old toner cartridge. Open the package with the new cartridge, remove the packing tape and paper that protects the cartridge and gently shake it (avoid touching the blue or green parts of the OPC drum). Press the cartridge into the slot until it is fully seated. Close the front cover.

The green/red blinking power light is not one I'm seen before. The printer indicates a non-toner failure (open cover, no paper, LSU failure, etc.) with a steady red light.

The last led light blinks green and sometimes it turns solid red

red light is stands for hardware boot and the green one is stands for system boot and disc boot. when red light remains solid it means your system is in 0% cpu usage and nothing doing, stop working

The red light is blinking and it doesn't print.

There are actually some certain meaning on the red light and green light showing different information to user. The summaries are:
1) Green On, Red Off = Printer Ready.
2) Green Fast-Flashing, Red Fast-Flashing = Printer warm up.
3) Green Fast-Flashing, Red Off = Printer off-line.
4) Green Slow-Flashing, Red Off = Processing Data.
5) Green Off, Red On = Cover Opened, Toner Empty or Developer Unit / Drum unit missing.
6) Green Off, Red Fast-Flashing = Paper Jam or waiting for jam reset.
7) Green Off, Red Slow-Flashing = Paper Empty or Paper tray is not inserted.
8) Green Off, Red Off = Printer power is off.
9) Green Very-Slow-Flashing, Red Off = Printer in sleep mode.
10) Green (any condition above), Red Slow-Flashing = Toner low or paper empty.

So what is your printer condition? Better know what is going on your printer so can solve the problem.

Kyocera FS-920 RED LIGGHT IS BLINKING AND GREEN LIGHT IS OFF

There are 2 possibility to cause your printer acting like this:
1) Green Off, Red Fast-Flashing = Paper Jam or waiting for jam reset.
2) Green Off, Red Slow-Flashing = Paper Empty or Paper tray is not inserted.

If it is condition 1) then just remove the jam paper then open and close the Top Cover to clear the error.
If it is condition 2) then insert some paper in the paper tray.
