I have a frigidaire fac084n7a1 which has a non working fan. I think I hear the compressor turning on. Is there a way to check the cooling system independent of the fan working?
There are a few checks that could be done, i.e. you could 'ohm the compressor out' to see if it had a 'short, or its windings are 'opened.'
Or - if there was a valve on the AC - you could tell if the system was holding it's refrigerant or not - you could also visually examine both coils to see if they were 'clean.'
But to 'make sure' the AC is operating 'correctly' will require all the components to be working - including the fan motor.
Hi,
Many times a freezer and/or refrigerator do not work right because of a dirty condenser coil...there are also many other things that can go wrong.
If you are hearing a clicking or buzzing then check out the last two tips.
If your refrigerator is running but warm, then...
Check out these tips that I wrote about that... it is a great place to start trouble shooting your unit...and something that you can do rather then calling a repair person to do a simple thing for you...
