Answer Hello Eric. If there is a sealed system repair needed on the unit, you will need to take it to an HVAC technician to repair the unit. 

Allen for Model Number 106.73182300

Answer Allen, Yes you are correct, any resistance between any compressor pin connector to chassis ground or the compressor casing would indicate a damaged winding, and the compressor would neeed to be replaced. 

Richard for Model Number Icemaker EC5100XFB0 Compressor W10309988

Answer Richard, based on your post description, The evaporator should have an even frost/ chill pattern on the complete evaporator. Not a, heavy frost in the center, and lighter pattern on the outer edges. There are a couple of possibilities, The evaporator has a floating restriction, due to non condensables, or liquid in the evaporator. The reversing valve or solenoid could be faulty and allowing a minor heat leak, and the system could be " overcharged" creating a pressure flow issue with the refrigerant. It's doubtfull, you have a leak or an issue with the compressor. Thanks and Good Luck 

Ray T. for Model Number W10309988

Answer Hi Ray. Basically the manufacturer pre determined compressor oil fill level. They (compressors) are all fitted per sealed system freon need size combined with the length and the diameter of the tube size. Under fill and over fill is extremely detrimental. Send us your model # as then we will be able to see what the manufacturer recommends for your particular model #. Thank You.

Answer Hello Richard. The compressors W10309988 are sent with oil. Make sure when you install it, a good vacuum is pulled and the pressures hold. If not, you can burn the compressor up. Hope this helps.
