I have a Viking beverage center that has just stopped working. No compressor running...just the light so you can see it's not working. Turned dial up and down. Unplugged and replugged...nothing. I replaced the thermostat 2 years ago and it has been running fine since but now this. Ideas??

As you may or may not know, Viking service information is very hard to come by. With that in mind. measure the voltage at the compressor. Is it 120 VAC? Check the thermostat for continuity.

Well didn't a continuity test on the temperature sensor which runs from inside the fridge to what I assume is the relay. No continuity. Removed leads and jumped the wires which turned on the fridge and started cooling. So apparently this is a Honeywell part and now I have to scour the internet trying to find a comparable part. Trying to avoid purchasing the entire kit for $300.
My part is a 535-32AB25-202 and I found a 535-32AB36-202.

Unfortunately I won't be much help. I have no Viking parts sources. Sorry and good luck.
