It's either a bad thermostat, or a bad compressor kicking out on overload. There are other rare possibilities. A multi meter is the best way to check the thermostat (using ohms), but if you don't have one then you can unplug the box and wire around the thermostat and the plug the box back in to see if it runs longer. If so, then unplug the box and replace the thermostat. If you are unfamiliar with wiring then call a technician. Electricity can kill you if you don't know what you're doing, so don't chance it if you don't know anything about it.
the wooshing maybe the oil/freon migrating thru out the internal system...
The cycle depends on 2 things... t'stat operation and timer. The timer usually shuts off freezer every 6 or 8 hrs for 20 to 30 mins. But the t'stat (once it reaches desired temp. should shut off freezer every 15- 20 mins. for an average 10 -15. So 15 mins off min 15 mins on (that is if the doors is not open) you get my point something like that...
but the way you describe to me it sounds like the t'stat. set it at 1 if it dont shut off and you are absoultely sure you got zero degrees (use a temp. reader) then replace the t'stat
hope this was helpful
let me know if this didnt work then plan B
The way I understand how Hoshizaki machines work, the model number is usually what the unit will produce, in pounds of ice.
Their manual states: "Approximate production/ 24 hours @ 70 degrees air/ 50 degrees water (incoming)"
So, yours should be producing 450 pounds a day, approimately.
Since I can not pin point your exact model, I found one that is close. It states: "Ice Production per cycle: 6.6 pounds, 360 pcs."
Again, it is not you exact machine. Their web site does not show this model either. So this is the best info I can get for you.
Hope this helps.
i suspect a defective liquid line or pump down seleonid coil. just make sure you hear the "click" when it starts up if not the selenoid coils could be defective. also verify that the condenser fan is running,because if not you are short-cycling on high head pressure. please contact if you need any additional info
Power surge can cause problems such as you have. I am not familiar with your brand but it sounds like the defrost timing circuit is your problem. Defrosting the surface of the back wall is not the answer. The cooling coil in the freezer is behind the back wall normally and a surface defrost does not do the trick of defrosting the coil. Have an appliance service tech check it out for you.
