Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Worth checking yourself first: check the breaker hasn't tripped and the unit's overload protector hasn't kicked out, since both can look like a dead compressor. Also, listen for a hum with no start, or a repeated clicking sound, and confirm the unit is actually getting power. If it's still acting up after that, 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.
