Thanks for making this video, I will be replacing my compressor as soon as it gets here,I’ve watched a dozen videos on LG comp replacement, and this is by far the best one.
Great information sir!
Thank you so much for sharing you skill and knowledge.
Nice video how long did it take you for compressor replacement?
Great info. But its above my pay grade.
We never have or have heard very little issue with Whirlpool Frig or GE ,, why always LG and Samsung ,,, because we started liking their Frig accessories, feature rather than a frig needs to be reliable as being cooling device lol😅
Gracias mí hermano se que es un capacitor de marcha de 18 mfd no entendí más me podrías explicar en español y se podría arrancar cualquier motor inverter de nevera con ésa conexión gracias Dios te siga bendiciendo grandemente mí hermano
You mentioned towards the end ‘don’t forget to update software’. I thought only update software if you switched from R134A to R14. Anyway to contact you for any question. Thanks for the great video.
Do you account for the lineset for your gauges on the weight of the refrigerant that you are pumping back in? those are extremely long hoses you use.. also do you know what the running amps are for the compressor once it gets going? also what are the normal pressures for it ? this one is r-134a with ambient around 75F
I don't do as much as you do. I only flush it back from the filter drier to the discharge. I use the filter drier to flush it back. I don't flush the cap tube. Not needed. No Robinair needed. I use regular brazing rod and just add flux on the steel and copper. Copper to copper not needed.
Can you make a video showing how to diagnose a bad compressor.
hello sir, i have a LG fridge with a compressor that is similar to the one you repaired. Two pipes on the right side, one sucks and the other purges to the condenser. The left side one sucks also. Can I switch the two suck port or pipes so the service pipe can switch roles with the one that receives gas from the system?
There is a RUclips video shown that LG using steel pipe on the upper section "foam" , I wonder if LG corrected that wrong material usage in later Frig models , WHY, because steel will be corrosive and leaked and losing pressure thus no cooling/cold at all
I'm on my 4th Inverter Linear Compressor in 7 years. They promote the warranty of 10 years on it ( free) But the Service Call is $631.00 with Tax, to have it installed and fixed ! That's about 25 % of the cost of a new Refrigerator, so No more LG ( LIFE"S GARBAGE ) and bought a FRIGIDAIRE PROFESSIONAL 27.8 cubic ft Appliance .......
My LG fridge stopped cooling....but found out that the system lost the coolant. Turns out the metal piping inside the insulation rusted and due to corrosion the coolant leaked out. Only fix was to toss the fridge to the dump. Saved a lot of money by not getting a service man to rip me off.
My sales rep said the lg linear compressors are best in class for reliability
Thanks for the video! I just had my sealed system replaced (3 days ago) and the cooling is minimal at best - about the same as before the fix. The tech said give it up to 7 days to “kick in”. Is that correct? Or should we start seeing improvements right away? Thanks again!
Hi if i may ask y do you have charger the freon with 134 upside down i thought its done with the bottle upright
Clean your joints by using a small amount of sandpaper before brazing.
Who makes that recovery machine? It's a lot more compact than any that I have.
