Here are your parts Model ED5FTGXKQ01Here is a wiring diagram https://www.servicematters.com/d...0Sheet%20-%202205975.pdfI assume compressor, condenser fan and evaporator fan are all off. Could be you are stuck in a defrost cycle Take a look at Item 6 in the "Control" section There should be a hole which will allow you to rotate the defrost timer cam manually with a screw driver. If the unit comes on then that is your problem. This does not rule out the timer fully, could be the contacts in the timer are not closing Next would be the thermostat Unplug one of the wires and measure it with a meter should be 0 ohms. OR Unplug the unit Short the thermostat wires together Make sure they cannot short to the frame etc. Plug the unit in If it starts then that is the problem. Note you may have to rotate the defrost timer some just to be sure you are not in a defrost cycle. |
