Very possible that the start winding of the compressor motor is partially shorted. A grounded winding would cause a breaker to trip, however, a shorted start winding would not produce enough torque to turn the compressor and the run winding would not kick in resulting in the buzzing to stop in about 5 - 10 seconds (start winding timing out). Change the compressor motor or get a new refrigerator, depending on cost factors. Call a professional for compressor replacement unless you want a huge headache. Gary Yingling - Avon Lake, Ohio

Why did air compressor quit after changing coil pack?

If your air compressor quit after changing the coil pack, you may have additional problems with the compressor. You may want to take the compressor to a service station to have it evaluated.


How are refrigerants used to remove heat in a refrigerator?

Refrigerants remove heat in a refrigerator by changing phases within the coils. They will absorb or release heat through evaporation or condensation. The compressor and expansion valve facilitate the pressure changes. For more information and a diagram, please refer to the related link.


Cost of changing an air conditioner compressor?

The cost of changing an air conditioner compressor will vary depending on the make and model of vehicle and parts and labor costs. On average, it will cost around $250 and up to replace the compressor.


When changing an auto ac compressor if you put oil in the compressor do you just add r134a with no oil?

Yes!


When capacitor is having an insulation how is it allowing ac current?

Capacitor does not allow any current through it.By the changing of electric field across the plates it is usually assumed that capacitor allow ac through it.Is it???


What happens to the charge of a capacitor when a dielectric slab is fit in it?

Changing the dielectric causes the capacitance to change.


What is the function of fixed capacitor?

A fixed capacitor has a fixed capacitance (within certain limits influenced by aging). So it can fulfill any function that a (variable) capacitor fulfills, beside changing its capacitance easily (e. g. by turning a wheel).


If we change the polarity of capacitor in ceiling fan why it starts rotating reverse direction?

by changing the polarity of capacitor of single phase ceiling fan can we change the direction of rotation from anticlockwise to clockwise


What is the principle of accelerometer in intertial navigation system?

The principle of accelerometer is that change the acceleration into voltage signal. At the beginning, the acceleration a is changed to displacement by mechanical structures such as differential capacitive, then displacement x is represented by changing in capacitor dC. A readout circuit is required to detect this capacitor changing. Hence, the changing capacitor is transfered to voltage bu using a charge amplifier. However, noises alwalys exist. Therefore, a Low pass filter is needed to filt the high frequency noise.


If picofarad capacitor is replaced with microfarad capacitor then what will happend?

The unit of capacitor is farad. 1 farad =10 to the power of 6 microfarad and also = 10 to the power of 12 picofarad Therfore if you are replacing one picofarad capcitor into one microfarad capacitor you are increasing the capcitance to 1000000 times. If it is in an oscillator circuit you are changing the frequency drastically which will be of no use.


How can a capacitor start motor be reversed?

by reversing the connection of the two windings


How much oil do you put in new AC compressor for a 1988 dodge caravan 3.0 liter?

If you are only changing the compressor, add 3 ounces into the suction port of the compressor before you attach hoses. After hoses are attached rotate the compressor by hand clockwise several turns to distribute the oil.
