Most common Viking wine cooler parts that need replacing

1. Leveling leg. The leveling leg adjusts to keep the wine or beverage cooler cabinet level when you install the cooler in its permanent location.
2. Light switch. The light switch turns the interior light on and off when you open and close the cooler door.
3. Temperature sensor. The temperature sensor detects temperature inside the wine or beverage cooler cabinet and sends a signal to the electronic control board to indicate interior temperature.
4. User interface control. The user interface control allows you to select wine or beverage cooler settings.
5. Compressor. The compressor is a positive displacement pump rotated by an electric motor. The compressor receives low-pressure refrigerant gas from the evaporator and rotates to compress that refrigerant to a high-pressure gas that moves through the condenser. The refrigerant gets hot when compressed by the compressor pump. The condenser is a heat exchanger that removes heat from the refrigerant gas and condenses it into a high-pressure liquid refrigerant. The high-pressure liquid refrigerant flows through the expansion device and into the evaporator that's at low pressure. The high-pressure refrigerant expands and evaporates. It absorbs the latent heat of vaporization as it changes from a liquid to a gas, which causes the cooling action in the evaporator. The refrigerant flows through the evaporator and back to the compressor where the cycles starts over.

How to level your Viking wine cooler or beverage cooler

1. Position the wine or beverage cooler on a flat, level surface capable of supporting the unit when it's full.
2. Check vertical and horizontal leveling using a bubble or laser level.
3. Adjust leveling legs to properly level the wine or beverage cooler side to side and front to back. Level the wine or beverage cooler front-to-back with a slight tilt backward so the door swings gently shut when you let it go.
4. Press down on diagonally opposing corners of the cabinet to check for stability. Adjust the leveling legs to eliminate any rocking.
