Hi, I have a Turboair Problem with the Turbo Air Freezers Hi, I have a Turboair 2 door reach in freezer. The issue is that it is not getting cold. It worked great but had been unplugged for about 5 months. When I turned it on the digital readout on the top read "CO" I am guessing that it needs to be charged but needed advice as well and didn't want to get killed from a over priced service call. Model number is GST 40DF kind regards, Tim View Comments Comments and Clarifications: timsol2 hours ago Everything is running including the compressor. It goes through a complete cycle and then shuts off as normal but it is still warm inside the unit. Any idea what the "CO" represents as it may be an error code and perhaps needs to be reset. The unit is very clean uptop and I noticed that the line from the compressor is not cold.

What you want to do, find the compressor on this unit, below in back or front, or some are on top. Make sure you feel it running, and see if the condenser fan motor by the compressor is also running. Check the condenser coil and make sure its clean, and make sure the indoor evaporator fan is running. These are things you can check on your own to find out if something is going on with a part. The only time a unit needs freon is if it has had a leak in the passed, and it was never repaired, so it lost its charge when it was shut down for sometime. Check these things and get back to me. We can figure this out. Shastalaker7 A/C, Heating, & Refrigeration Contractor Add a comment for shastalaker7Report abuse Posting advertisements, profanity, or personal attacks is prohibited.

Tried to find the code "CO" in service manual but to no avail and please furnish the proper model number as none you list appeal. You stated that the unit sat for 5 months so I am wondering if your unit has developed a restriction in the capillary tube as this unit uses R 134A which has this problem.
SOURCE: Hi, I have a Turboair
You may want to clean out the coils on the back and underneath the front as this is a common problem with most refrigerators and freezers. use a long skinny brush ( you can get one from your local hardware store ) and carefully sweep out that buildup, being careful to not be forceful as this may damage one of the lines. If this does not do the trick then you will probably need to call the service technician.
Good luck!!
