Since this thread is already started I'll just continue from here. I have the frig in a building now. Not gonna work on it for a while but curious about it so I checked the windings to start with. This is what I have. Common to start, 4.4 ohms, common to run, 3.4, run to start 7.4. Any of the three to ground is 19.6.the oil heater is working too. Pluged it in and it started up and is cooling. Dident run it very long. Left it plugged in so the heater can warm the oil up and ill see how it runs tomarrow. Ill update and post some pics. Then. I want to take the unit off to see if the "hole" for the refrigeration unit is factory made or chopped in a cabinet. I think its factory made. The ground resistance is very worrisome. The ground resistance is very low. Were the measurements taken with the wires connected? That reading appears to indicate other components in the circuit leaking to ground (crankcase heater?). |

yws they were taken with all the wires connected at the control except the power cord. i was going to houston monday and the want to know bug bit me, so i ran by real quick and checkek them. ill try them disconnected. i've let it run some short runs today since i was working on trying to get a roof on the building before it rains. lol we've had about an inch in 3 months. i pluged it in this afternoon and let it run. never went over 175 watts and about 2 hours later it cycled off just below 10 degrees. enough for one day. let me try to post some pics.
