My refrigerator is not cooling (compressor not running).

Both condenser and evaporator fans running normal.

Coils clean and airflow not obstructed.

Checked overload protector 0 ohms resistance.

Checked Start Relay resistance seems to jump around I get anywhere from infinity to around 50 to 60 ohms.

Checked defrost timer manually turning this will turn off or on the evaporator fan, but will not turn on the compressor.

Checked compressor resistance between common and either start or run terminals and they both measure infinity. Between start and run terminals it measures 14.5 ohms

Seems there is a open winding in the compressor?

Just hoping I am missing something with the other tests

Any help or ideas

Thanks
Jeff

PS Forgot to say I checked thermostat coldest setting resistance is zero, put in other freezer for minutes on warmest setting afterwards resistance is infinity.

Sorry I did not see your reply earlier. Have been busy. Double checked with another meter same results. Good tip for the ACME repair info. I seen the problem I was having with different readings on the Starter Relay.

Thanks for the info.
