Why your True refrigerated display case is compressor failure
When a True refrigerated display case 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. The usual culprit is a contaminated sealed system. Left unaddressed, food or stock can spoil within hours.
Most likely causes
- Failed start relay or capacitor
- Refrigerant charge loss
- A seized compressor
- An overheated overload protector
Known True refrigerated display case weak points
- condenser fan motor failure and dirty condenser coils causing high box temperatures
- door gasket wear and self-closing hinge cartridge failures on reach-ins
- evaporator coil icing and clogged/frozen condensate drain lines
- electronic temperature controller faults on newer Spec Series units
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. Past that point, 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.
