compressor.
Compressor Removal

2. Disconnect the compressor electricals (relay/
overload and capacitor).
3. Follow recovery procedure (see Evacuation
and Charging Procedure under the
Replacing Sealed System Components
section of this service guide), and disconnect
the suction and discharge lines.

Compressor Diagnosing
Check the resistance of the compressor windings.
S to C: ~6 ohms
R to C: ~4 ohms
If the resistance is not correct or a winding is
open or shorted to the case of the compressor,
replace the compressor.
