Hi,
I have a Samsung RS21DGRS which, when turned on, will run for about 5 seconds then the comp turns off and never comes back on.
I can’t do systems stuff at the min so I’m wondering if this is a faulty compressor, board or even a blocked system?
Any help appreciated 😀Re: Samsung RS21DGRS
Hello, it more than likely wouldn’t be blocked as the motor would keep running but sound terrible.
Have you checked at the compressor to see if at the time it’s turned off that its receiving a signal?
If there’s no live down to the compressor then it’s likely to be a board fault, but if there is live there, then it’s going to be a compressor fault.Re: Samsung RS21DGRS
Morning and thanks for the reply.
I’ve not checked for power to the comp but it runs for about 5 seconds before labouring them going off so I’m presuming the supply is there.
I did fear a faulty comp but at least that is fixable rather than a blocked system.
Does it sound right?Re: Samsung RS21DGRS
Morning, the point I’m trying to make is that, is the compressor only receiving a signal for 5 seconds or all the time?
It’s more than likely the compressor, but I wouldn’t fit one without qualifying it first.
If you don’t do system work then it’s all academic really, but I’d still be checking for signal.Cheers.
Re: Samsung RS21DGRS
Right I get your point. Didn’t realise what you meant exactly but that does make perfect sense.
I did suspect the compressor as it begins to labour before turning off but then again I suppose that could just be it loosing the power too.
I will check for continuous power and if so I will refer to local systems guy for a new compressor.
Thanks again.
