Refridgerator/freezer light works but does not cool. Replaced run capicator & overload relay with new ones.
With the new run run capacitor & run relay installed, I can hear the relay click, the compressor seems to hum, then after a few minutes, another click. Also, the condenser fan runs. No cooling in the fridge compartments.
I took [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]a continuity reading from each terminal pin to the housing of the compressor - no reading so the compressor is not shorted to ground.[/SIZE][/FONT]
[SIZE=3]I took resistance readings on the three compressor pins.[/SIZE]
Resistance readings were as follows: Top pin to Bottom Left pin - 5.0 ohms; Top pin to Bottom Right pin - 5.3 ohms: Bottom Left pin to Bottom Right pin - 7.8 0hms.
What else can I check to determine the problem? Do you think that the new run capacitor is bad? I have no way to check it.
Appreciate any advice - thanks.
