Questions and Answers

    Why Taylor 104 has no beater operation in AUTO position?
    • J
      Jeanne MaddenSep 4, 2025
      If the beater is not operating with the control switch in the AUTO position on your Taylor Freezer, first plug the unit into a wall receptacle. If it is already plugged in, check if the circuit breaker is off or the fuse is blown and turn the breaker on or replace the fuse. As well, check the rocker switch. If the problem persists, check for loose or broken wire at compressor contactor and repair it, allow the unit to cool if it is off on high PSI cut out, put the freezer in the OFF position to allow the unit to cool if it is out on reset, and secure the door for freezer operation if it is open.

      James PerrySep 7, 2025
      If the overrun is too low in your Taylor Freezer, adjust the temperature control accordingly. If that doesn't solve the issue, place the control switch in the AUTO position to blend in more air until the desired overrun is achieved. Also, ensure you are following proper priming procedures.
