Any window shaker technitions out ther lol.

[dall]

does it have the reset button on the plug i have seen alot of those go bad also

I dont know a whole lot about testing sruff. What leads do i put it on and what setting on multi meter.

Multimeter on ohms. Pull one wire off the overload to isolate it then put one lead on each side, should read the same as if you touch your leads together.

Back of board. No birn marks

Just pulled the overload protector will try testing it

Or should i have left it hooked up

Be careful with some appliance capacitors ,some need discharged before servicing or can be deadly from what i have read .

Yes i have hear that too. Can hold 300 plus volts

And also thanks for your concern.

Tried checking overload protector. Got reading of 00.1

All checks out so far.
You can test your capacitor (large silver, 3 terminals) with an ohmmeter as well.
First ground all terminals with a screwdriver, then pull any wires from common terminal.
Terminals should read c, h, f.
Put one lead on common, one on h. You should get a reading that gradually changes. Reverse your leads it should reverse.
Repeat for f terminal.
Check for any grease / swelling.

You can also check compressor with ohmmeter.
Pull all wires.
Check all leads to ground- meter should read OL for all. Any continuity or resistance is bad.
Check all leads to each other.
The sum of c-r and c-s should equal r-s.

Will it be charged with voltage.

Does this make any sense?

Close enough.- edit- exactly right.
Capacitor may hold a charge, grounding each terminal with a screwdriver makes it safe.

 

[merc_man]

So compressor is good then?

May watch a couple youtube vids for the compressor. Dont wanna lite myself up.

You'll be fine. Even reading resistance through your meter to ground will discharge a capacitor. This is a dual run capacitor. Start capacitors (higher microfarad ratings) are the ones that bite).

I will have to wait till later. At the girls soccer practice. Away tomorrow. Probly wont be till sunday. I appreciate all the help.

Check mfd on capacitor its the round silver thing.you might not have that setting on your meter.you need a.c. meter for that.ohm out compressor across each pin.then ohm out your fan motor across each leg.that black relay is your normaly open relay for your fan.they go bad sometimes if everything ohms out good its most likely your board.you dont have short to ground on compressor or fan cuz your breaker wouls trip wich is good.

I know thwre are no press ports on window shaker but see if there are any press switches in the refrigerant circuit.ohm those switches out for continuity.if they are open it will shut entire unit down,then you have to determine if you have a open switch or loss of freon charge
