Can we talk about how I used to diagnose compressor issues on fridges

I'd always start with the overload relay, but after a training session in Dallas last fall, I check the run capacitor first every single time. Anyone else find that saves you a solid 15 minutes on a call?

Totally, that order switch is huge. Started carrying a couple extra caps on the truck too, cuts down on repeat visits for the same simple fix.

Yeah checking the run capacitor first is a total game changer. I used to do the overload relay too and it wasted so much time. That switch in order saved me a bunch of trips back to the truck.
