How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the unit before accessing the compressor area.

  • Check supply voltage: Ensure the outlet provides stable voltage within the specified range.
  • Inspect start device: Remove and shake the PTC relay gently; if it rattles or shows burn marks, replace it.
  • Allow cooling: Let the compressor cool for 30–60 minutes and try again. Persistent clicking indicates a deeper issue.
  • Professional service: If a new start device does not resolve the problem, the compressor may be failing and should be evaluated by a technician.
