Hi Guys,

I recently got the opputornity to purchase a used Mach II GT from a Seller that seemed rather reputable - the price seemed all right, so I gave it a shot.

Well, the Mach II arrived here yesterday, a fried of him dropped it off at my place. Everything looked ok at a first glance - until i tried to fire it up today.

When I plug it in, I get the "Restart Delay" Countdown on the Display. That lasts for about 10 secs, after that the Display shows the Temperature that drops from -74°C to -99°C... after it has hit -99°C, the Compressor begins to jump on and of in a one-second interval and the Display shows "NO SHUTDOWN".
I also got an "FAIL SENSOR" - "Sensor ufa" Message once or twice.
Looks like the Evap Sensor is blown, right?
So, is this a common failure on the Mach II GTs and easy to repair or should I try to get a hold of the seller and get my money back?

Thanks for you input. :)

Well, I dont think so. I mean, not even the Frankinprommy could reach -99°C within 10 secs without even switching turning the compressor on. :p: :rolleyes:

Nevermind. I called the seller, he told me to reflash the Firmware - the Mach works like a charm now. weeehaaa... :banana:
