Hello Frank. Based on the information you provided, it sounds like the compressor W10160407 is bad and will need to be replaced. When the unit sits for a while, the pressure on the sealed system equalizes. Then when you plug the unit back up, the compressor does not have and pressure and starts ok. When the unit reaches correct temperature and shuts off, or goes through a defrost cycle, there is still some pressure in the system when the compressor comes on. If the compressor windings is bad, the compressor will not start, it just kicks out the overload. Hope this helps.
