How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the appliance before any inspection. Sealed system work must be done by a certified technician.
- Check if compressor runs: With the unit plugged in (briefly), listen at the back. If the compressor is silent and not vibrating, suspect a start device or control issue.
- Inspect start relay: Remove the compressor cover and check the start relay/overload for burn marks or rattling. Replace if damaged.
- Feel condenser: After 10–15 minutes of operation, the condenser coil should feel warm. If the compressor runs but the condenser stays cold, there may be a refrigerant issue.
- Call a professional: If the compressor runs but there is no cooling, or if you suspect a refrigerant leak, contact a refrigeration technician for leak detection and sealed system repair.
