Frig wasn't cooling or freezing
ohms-tested the overload relay and PTC component BUT failed to test the compressor. Turns out that it was the compressor was bad and a do-it-ourselfer won't be able to change out this component. Must be licensed to install freon back into the lines once they are separated. Also specialized soldering equip. and freon equipment is needed
... Read more to perform this task. And if you add too much or the wrong kind of product or don't accurately install the bullet-piercing valve you can risk damaging the unit. So, ALWAYS Oms-test the compressor while testing the capacitor and overload and relay kit!!

Fridge would run but not blow cold air. Compressor would cycle for 12 seconds every 5 minutes
