COMPRESSOR

When part 18-8750-22 is specified for a service call, the component involved is the compressor. In service work, this part is selected when troubleshooting points to component failure rather than a wiring, control setting, or maintenance issue. Always verify the brand family and machine series used on the service call so the replacement matches correctly. Model verification is important because close machine variants may use different revisions of the same component category. Restores refrigeration compression when the system is not cooling, runs hot, or cannot maintain ice production. Field complaints tied to this part type often include low ice production, not cooling, and warm cabinet. Compressor failures often show up as persistent cooling loss, high operating temperature, or inability to maintain normal ice production. For this compressor category, the typical repair goal is to restore the function that the failed component was affecting. Before ordering, technicians usually confirm the part number, inspect adjacent components, and test the affected circuit or mechanism. Before replacing a compressor, technicians normally verify windings, startup components, refrigerant circuit condition, and signs of mechanical lock or overheating. After installation, technicians typically monitor startup or cycle operation to confirm the machine returns to normal behavior. Using the exact replacement part number after diagnosis helps correct the issue at the source instead of masking the symptom temporarily. Documenting voltage, resistance, temperature, or flow readings during diagnosis also helps validate the repair after installation. The best results come from matching the part number to the machine and replacing it only after the failure has been confirmed. Symptoms such as not turning on, no power, not cooling, not starting, intermittent operation, error code faults, or ice not dropping may point to this part category, but technicians should verify the complete failure path to make the repair stick.
