Why your True back bar cooler is compressor failure

The first things owners spot on a compressor failure True back bar cooler: compressor clicks on then stops, or won't start. Often refrigerant or start relay related. More often than not it traces back to a contaminated sealed system. Left unaddressed, food or stock can spoil within hours.

Most likely causes

  • An electrical short in the windings
  • A contaminated sealed system
  • Failed start relay or capacitor

Known True back bar cooler 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

Before booking a repair, check the breaker hasn't tripped and the unit's overload protector hasn't kicked out, since both can look like a dead compressor. If none of that changes anything, 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.

Our True back bar cooler quit on us and they had a technician out the same afternoon in Jacksonville. Flat price agreed up front, and they stood behind the labour warranty.

The True back bar cooler died mid-week and they had it sorted before I'd even rearranged my schedule. They clearly knew True inside out and had the part on the truck.
