Why your back bar cooler is compressor failure
Compressor failure on a back bar cooler usually announces itself like this: compressor clicks on then stops, or won't start. Often refrigerant or start relay related. Nine times out of ten it comes down to a seized compressor. Left unaddressed, food or stock can spoil within hours.
Most likely causes
- Failed start relay or capacitor
- An electrical short in the windings
- A contaminated sealed system
- A seized compressor
Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Start here — it costs nothing and rules out the easy cause: listen for a hum with no start, or a repeated clicking sound, and confirm the unit is actually getting power. Also, check the breaker hasn't tripped and the unit's overload protector hasn't kicked out, since both can look like a dead compressor. Once you've ruled that out, confirming an actual seized compressor versus a tripped protector needs an amp reading, and swapping a compressor means recovering and recharging refrigerant safely, which takes an experienced technician.
