Resistance
ValuesTecumseh
compressor
motor
resistance
values
are
measured
across
compressor
termi¬nal
leads.
Approximate
resistance
of
motor
windings
at
ambient
temperature
of
25°C(77°F)
is
given
in
Table
6-1.
Resistance
of
both

is
measured
across

Compressor
BurnoutIf
a
compressor
failure
has
been
determined,
it
will
be
necessary
to
replace
the
completecondensing
assembly.
In
this
case,
a
determination
must
be
made
of
the
type
of
burn¬out
that
has
occurred
so
that
the
evaporator
liner
can
be
cleaned
accordingly.Two
types
of
burnouts
can
occur:
a
standing
burnout
or
a
running
burnout.
These
canbe
determined
by
smelling
and
visually
examining
the
refrigerant.1.
Open
a
service
valve
while
holding
a
white
cloth
or
white
tissue
over
the
opening
tocatch
a
few
drops
of
oil.2.
Sniff
the
refrigerant;
an
acrid
odor
indicates
a
burnout.3.
Examine
the
refrigerant.
If
the
oil
is
clean,
a
standing
burnout
is
indicated
and
thecontamination
of
the
evaporator
liner
will
not
be
extensive.Table
6-1.
