Why your refrigerated display case is compressor failure

A refrigerated display case that is compressor failure tends to show the same signs, whatever the brand: compressor clicks on then stops, or won't start. Often refrigerant or start relay related. Across the brands we service, it's most often a seized compressor. Left unaddressed, food or stock can spoil within hours.

Most likely causes

  • An overheated overload protector
  • A seized compressor
  • Failed start relay or capacitor
  • An electrical short in the windings
  • A contaminated sealed system

Quick check — and when it's not DIY

Do this first — it takes two minutes: 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. If none of that changes anything, 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.
