Specifications

To test the compressor set a multimeter at RX1,
test each of the three terminal pins against
each of the other two. Each pair should show
continuity. Then, with the -multimeter set at
RX1000, place one probe against the metal
housing of the compressor; if necessary, scrape
off a little paint to ensure contact with bare
metal. Place the other probe on each of the
three terminals in turn. If any of the three
terminals shoes continuity with the housing, the
compressor is grounded. If the compressor fails
either test, call for service. If it passes the
tests, reinstall the overload protector, relay,
terminal cover and mechanical housing cover.
