Good Evening all!
I just got home to discover my freezer has a problem...
The compressor starts up and runs for about half a second before cutting out again. When I've attached my gauges, the pressures read about 1.4 Bar and the temperature in the freezer is -4.7.
It runs on R134a.
I don't have a reclaim unit to hand, so I'm not sure weather its short of gas, or theres a fault with the compressor, which doesn't run long enough for me to see if its seized!
Any ideas?
Thanks!
