An inoperativc unit, dependent upr.rnwhat compo-
nent has caused the malfunction, has certain
symptoms; that, if known, will facilitate repairs.
These symptons are:
l. Compressor runs continuously od either
voltsge cupply, but no cooling is obtained.
This indicates the system has a leak causing
refrigerant loss, or th€ compressor is faulty. In
either case, the system must be replaced.
2. Compressor run8 continuously on either
voliage supply and cabinet temperature is
extremely cold. In this case, the thermostat is
at fauit. Check the capillary bulb of the ther.
mostat. It is located under the evaporator and
should be secureddirectly to th e evaporator pl ate
