Answer

Ace, there could be multiple things going on. You may want to verify that the proper voltage is being sent to the compressor, as well as checking to ensure that the condenser coils are clear. If you are able to measure the amp draw of the compressor, the amp draw reading should be between 1.1 to 1.6 amps. If the amp draw is higher or lower, then you have a bad compressor. If the compressor is not receiving voltage, then you will want to test the cold control 241537103 and the defrost timer 215846604 for proper operation.
