"Unit 65 in both sections. Found oil on the factory Yoder loop lokring fitting indicating a leak. Tapped system and it was in a deep vacuum. Pressurized system with nitrogen and confirmed the leak on the lokring fitting. I repaired the leak and replaced the filter drier. I then proceeded to pressurize system with nitrogen to 200 psi. I checked all joints with bubble leak detector and no leaks were found. Next I vacuumed down the system for 15 minutes and achieved a xxx micron vacuum. After removing vacuum, pump the vacuum settled out at xxx microns. Vacuum holding steady. I then recharged system with 75g of r600aa refrigerant. Unit is now running and beginning to blow cold air. Allow 24 hours for unit to cycle temps back down to normal. Job complete."

Lights not working in fridge or freezer and alarm goes off unless customer messes with the freezer door switch sometimes it will last 3 minutes sometimes it may be fine for days at a time. Found that the freezer drawer rails are worn causing the drawer to tilt forward and not trip the door switch properly. Was able to adjust switch but recommend replacing the rails as its only going to continue to get worse. ; ordrng 1 057856-000 (Rh rail) and 1 057857-000 (Lh rail)
