No Cooling Due to Compressor Not Running

Likely causes

Power or control signal fault preventing start

Check: Check voltage at compressor terminals

What to do: Check voltage at compressor terminals → Verify control signal (thermostat output) → Check if overload/high-pressure/low-pressure protection tripped → Follow 'Compressor Does Not Start' diagnostic tree

Protection device (overload/high/low pressure) shutdown

Check: Verify control signal (thermostat output)

What to do: Verify control signal (thermostat output) → Check if overload/high-pressure/low-pressure protection tripped → Follow 'Compressor Does Not Start' diagnostic tree

Compressor internal failure

Check: Check if overload/high-pressure/low-pressure protection tripped

What to do: Check if overload/high-pressure/low-pressure protection tripped → Follow 'Compressor Does Not Start' diagnostic tree

Field tip

Cooling has stopped because the compressor is not running. Go to 'Compressor Does Not Start' to diagnose the cause.
