Why your Krowne back bar cooler is compressor failure
When a Krowne back bar cooler is compressor failure, here's what you'll usually notice: compressor clicks on then stops, or won't start. Often refrigerant or start relay related. More often than not it traces back to an overheated overload protector. Left unaddressed, food or stock can spoil within hours.
Most likely causes
- Failed start relay or capacitor
- Refrigerant charge loss
- A seized compressor
- A contaminated sealed system
- An overheated overload protector
Known Krowne back bar cooler weak points
- condenser coils clogging with bar dust causing warm boxes
- door gasket wear and hinge sag on back-bar coolers
- glass-washer/rinser pump and spray faults
- drain and fill valve issues from hard water scaling
Quick check — and when it's not DIY
The one self-check that's actually worth your time: 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, a failing compressor is a sealed, high-pressure, refrigerant-charged part, and replacing one requires an experienced technician and recovery equipment no homeowner has on hand.
