Thread: Fog machine Help Please!!

Tweet

Both of my VEI 950 Fog machines won't work!! Please help if you have any ideas!

Fog Machine 1: Turns on, Heater is working as I can feel the machine get hot, Sounds like the pump is working as well since I hear it kick on and it sounds like its fogging but nothing comes out! I hit the Manual button as well and it "kicks" on but again nothing comes out. Any idease? Clogged line maybe and if so, how do i fix it? Its only the 3rd time Ive used it and cleaned it each time I put it away.

Fog Machine 2: Turns on but thats about it. Unit doesnt feel like its heating up and no pump sounds at all. Only the second time Ive used this one.

I checked the fuses on both and they are fine. Which I figured since they both turn on. Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

On the first unit you have to unbolt the pump from the unit then uncouple the copper line. The end that attaches to the copper line unscrews from the pump. Pull out assy and make sure it is clean, and also blow out the copper line too.

Also, search threads for resurrecting foggers there is plenty of info.

On the second, if nothing is powering on not even the heater it is electrical. Did you check the fuse w/ a mulitmeter? There isn't much to them but its still a pita too troubleshoot. My new last year 750 heats but pump will not even come on. The many year old 400's working great go figure, huh?!
