Why your Turbo Air back bar cooler is compressor failure
A Turbo Air back bar cooler that is compressor failure tends to show the same signs: compressor clicks on then stops, or won't start. Often refrigerant or start relay related. More often than not it traces back to a seized compressor. Left unaddressed, food or stock can spoil within hours.

Quick check — and when it's not DIY
One thing you can rule out on your own: listen for a hum with no start, or a repeated clicking sound, and confirm the unit is actually getting power. Past that point, 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.
