compressor

Hi, My fridge isn't cooling and I'm hoping it's the PCB rather than the compressor/sealed system. I woke up to find the ice had melted and it was not cold in the fridge or freezer. The compressor runs but isn't cold, and sounds normal while operating, compressor fan is operational. The...

Hello Folks, Thought I might luck out with a nice Haier kegerator (free), thinking it might be just the starter etc. I picked up an RCO410 to try my luck, and used an multimeter to map out the unmarked pins on the LG MA53LBCM compressor (115V RSCR PTC). The readings were 0.8 Ohm, 2.5 Ohm...

I have a Samsung RS263TDPN and the compressor stopped working. No errors at self diagnostic and the LED's on the main PCB and inverter PCB are not on. All lights and fans work. I noticed the fuse on the inverter PCB was blown and replaced it. It immediately blew again when I plugged it back in...

We've got a KSSC48FMS02 that seems to be struggling and thinking its about to go. From reading here I'm thinking it might be control board going? For the past 4 weeks or so there is a constant beeping from the fridge. The compressor also sounded like it wasn't staying on and recently have...

Hi All, I would like to find an easy way to fix my dehumidifier from Homelabs. I bought this from Amazon 2 years ago and it's out of warranty now. I have 2 of them at home and one isn't dehumidifying at all. The one currently not dehumidifying bought it in 2020 which is a new one. Bought in...

My Vinotemp VT32 wine cellar stopped running. The control panel quick-flashes "0"; buttons are non-responsive; compressor isn't running. I've never seen this sort of thing before. Anyone know if this is a trouble-code for this make/model; and what a zero quick-flash indicates? As an aside...

Tries to start but hangs up, fails and retries. I've swapped cap with one I believe to be good. Still hangs up. I changed the piece up on top of the compressor that has 2 black wires running to it surrounded by what looks like a spring (forget what it's called) with one from a working ac and...

I noticed that the fridge light occasionally didn't come on when opening the door. I replaced the bulb but the situation persisted. Yesterday, I noticed that my Diet Coke (TM) was not very cold, so I suspected that the light not working may be related to the fridge not cooling. I cleaned the...

Hi all, My KitchenAid Superba side-by-side freezer/fridge has a problem where the fridge temperature is fine while the freeze is not cold enough, 10-20F instead of 0F. I have checked all the usual: all fans are turning the compressor is hot but not super hot, and vibrating which I assume means...

The refrigerator isn't producing any cold air. When the unit is plugged in I can hear the evaporator fan running and see the condenser fan running. When I touch the condenser I don't feel and vibration. I tested the start relay, the overload and the compressor. Both the relay and overload have...

We are having an issue with our refrigerator periodically freezing food. We had a tech come out to evaluate and he is telling us we need a new compressor, evaporator, heat exchanger and filter drier. Does this sound correct? He never pulled the fridge from the wall so I’m not sure how he...

Hello I am looking for a bit of direction on where to hook up the Freon lines, I purchased this unit used when it did not cool I looked to see what the issue was and this is what I found 2 cut lines coming from the top if anyone would happen to know where I am to connect them to it would be...

Hello, I have a Samsung fridge I purchased at auction and unfortunately it doesn’t work. The fridge trips a GFCI as soon as compressor kicks on. The inverter board is showing 4 blinks indication motor locked or over RPM. Motor ohmed out good. I replaced the inverter board, the compressor, and...

My refrigerator has recently had an evaporator, the stepper valve, and the compressor replaced due to a refrigerant leak. Ever since then the variable speed compressor hasn't slowed down one bit, despite the fact that both compartments are always either at or below their set temperatures...

Hi all, Found this forum after lots of Youtube University learnin' ;) and eventually reached an impasse. So the fridge model is FRT15B3AQ4, born on date 12/03. Compressor wasn't running at all. Door light comes on but that's it. Initial internet troubleshooting pointed to the start...

Hello experts, I have a Silhouette Professional wine cooler (DWC053D1BSSPR) which stopped cooling a few weeks ago. It has power and shows "Hi" Temperature. I plugged it yesterday and it worked for a couple hours and then stopped cooling again. I noticed that the compressor was working...

8 years old, has served us well, ice maker jams frequently (needs to be taken out, shaken up and put back in) but overall a good functional unit. Till yesterday. I opened up the back, no LED blinks, tested the Run Capacitor (showing 18uf on the multimeter) while hoping for an easy fix, the...

After a power outage, our pfss6pkxcss fridge stopped cooling. At first, we noticed the front display was showing the old temps, but clearly these were inaccurate because it was no longer cool in there, so we turned-off the circuit breaker and left it off for 15 mins. When we turned it back on...

Hi! Whenever my fridge compressor starts, I can hear a faint chirping sound (like a distant bird) coming from it. The refrigerator is working like a charm, but this is annoying as hell! Is there a way I could silence it? **My fridge doesn’t have any condenser fan because the condenser coils are...

Hi all, I bought an LG LMXS30796S 3 years ago in the US and took it with me abroad. The fridge stopped cooling (totally) after 3 years of great work. A local technician checked and found no lack of refrigerant. Conclusion was it's either compressor or PCB fault. Since it's a US 110V product and...
