Hello, My refrigerator/freezer recently went out (it won't cool). The fan comes on; so I am assuming it is something with the compressor or the compressor circuitry. Figured I would start with the relay and the large capacitor - which leads to my question. Is there any way to check either and know if they need to be replaced? I don't want to replace them if I don't have to. Someone once told me to short the lines on the relay to see if the compressor would kick on. Not sure which lines they're talking about, so I thought I would first ask? If anyone knows where I can find a schematic, that would be a big help.
Thanks, in advance,
Brock

Hi, If you have power 120 volt AC to the start relay and the compressor is not shorted out then replace the start relay. Start Relay Repair Guide
