I am pleased to find this forum and learn a little about refrigeration as I figure-out if my Amcor HD320H dehumidifier is fixable.
Out of the blue it started to clang and rattle loudly. I have identified that the blower fan is working fine.
Attached to the compressor I have identified a Murata positive temp coefficient (PTC) motor starter thermistor and a 'Klixon' thermal trip. On powering-on the machine it runs for some seconds; sometimes quietly but generally rattling a bit than it used to. Then I hear a click, probably the Klixon device, and it shuts down.
The compressor is labelled:
TATUNG Co. R134a
FH300Y2-E
Sparse detail I know but is this enough information to identify a repairable prospect?
