Hello-Great explanation. We had the same compressor upgrade process described in this video-to include the programming. The tech replaced the compressor and starter, programmed the PCB and put the JIG sticker on the back of the fridge indicating the work was done on 3-26-20. The compressor is operating at 115 degrees (temp gun near the red tag), the line going to the condenser is 110 degrees and the return line at the dryer is 86 degrees. The temp inside the fridge is almost 90 degrees. The temp inside the freezer is 86 degrees. The model is a Kenmore Pro 795.79993.510 and the new LG compressor FLS075LANA. Everything seems to be running and sounds great but there is no cooling inside the fridge. I also put some liquid soap on the weld points and it doesn't seem to be leaking. Wondering if there is any freon in it at all. Any ideas?

This repair won't last more than 1-2 years. You didn't follow proper procedure to replace compressor. Moisture left in system will rust the condensor internally and wear out the compressor. 1. You always need to replace drier when replacing compressor. 2. You need to use micron gauge and pull vacuum below 500 microns and it should stay below 1000 microns after closing valves. 3. You need to charge system with gas not liquid from low side.

You are correct about replacing the filter/drier, also he didn't purge the system with dry nitrogen or use a micron gauge. You have to pump down to 500 microns, let it rest for 1/2 hour to stabilize to under 1000 microns. I didn't see him do a nitrogen gas flow during brazing in order to keep out internal oxidation scale-just good practice.

Hello. I'm trying to help out a friend of mine who lives in Jamaica W.I. His refrigerator's compressor recently stopped working and LG sent him a new one under warranty. He had to purchase the jig. A repair man installed the compressor for him and updated the fridge using the jig. After the new compressor was installed and the fridge was powered back on. The fridge now functions, but is no longer cooling properly. The main part of the fridge is running at 8c and the freezer is running at -2c (even though it should be running at -18c). The compressor is running at 51c. The fridge struggles just to freeze the ice trays and the ice maker isn't working at all. Can you think of any reason why this would be happening? Thanks for ANY suggestions you may have.

Snowmation yes , The only thing I can think right now that probably happened is probably that they needed to put more Freon inside because of the LG compressor in order to you to install the new Freon you had to use a scale valve, for they can install the right amount of Freon

Sounds like it doesn't have enough of a charge... I'd be checking the high side and low side pressure. Or evacuate and charge by weight. Should be around 5 oz (check your tag).

Snowmation, I am having the same problems now and the refrigerator and I are in Jamaica. I just received my compressor but when I opened the box, the instructions said I needed a S/W writing jig and maybe a new capacitor according to one video I watched. Given all that you said, and what was suggested by the host, one year later has this issue been resolved, because I'm in the process to purchase the same upgrade kit, maybe the capacitor and now possibly a scale valve as suggested. Is there any update or advice that you can give?
@Snowmation3 жыл бұрын
@@paradiseshimmy Yeah the jig worked fine and the fridge is doing its thing now. The issue my friend had was the fridge hadn't been fully re-gassed properly but once that was redone the fridge worked perfectly. So I expect you should be fine once you get the jig.

Does the device for Control Board update come with the Compressor? Or you had to buy separately?

Did you replace filter dry? Did you used nitrogen went you welding the line? What the micron in your gage went you finish vacuum ? You charge as a liquid or vapor?

Wow! Modern appliances what junk particularly Samsung and LG software/firmware on a refrigerator what kind of sorcery is this? Give me a mechanical thermostat with the remote liquid filled capillary probe and that is all that is need for a refrigerator or window AC these electronically controlled appliances are made to fail I had a window AC that the relay that controlled the compressor failed closed it would run as soon as mains power was provided I loved that (I like my place as close to 60°F as possible) until the evaporator froze over and sprung a leak and that was bye bye 21 OZ of R22 (the good stuff not this R410A R32. or R600A crap) and therefore the end of that unit is was a big beast too (12K BTU unit the largest 120VAC unit at the time)

We had a tech replace our compressor and it would only cool for like 4 days then stop. I don't think he updated the software. Could that be the reason? OR will the compressor not start at all without the new update? they did eventually refund our money though..
@TheFrenchPug Жыл бұрын
The update shouldn't have mattered. It's only for longevity and talking to the compressor as to when to turn on and off. Makes it more efficient and compatible with the internal rotary if they changed it from a linear compressor.

Great Video! I just had this FLS compressor replacement done on my Kenmore Elite with the firmware flash by A&E Factory Service, however now it freezes everything in both freezer and fridge sections. All thermistors read good, and defrost heaters are working. Another tech suspects the control board (Current is ERB78940614) will also need to be replaced with model ERB78940603. Any ideas?
@jw50314 жыл бұрын
UPDATE: Replaced the control board with the new "Gen 3 Refresh" model ERB78940603. Fridge temp is pretty much right on what I set it to except for the Temp-controlled deli drawer in the fridge, it freezes everything staying at around 10'F. Freezer stays about 29-32'F regardless of the temp I set it to. I was getting random "r-DH" errors after it ran for a couple days, unplugging the power and letting it sit for a while before plugging it back in would reset it, but it would come back. I replaced the Fridge defrost heater sensor and fuse, that eliminated the error so far. Im going to start replacing sensors now too, hopefully that solves the issue, I'll report back as it may help others.
