this unit is a 1.5 years old and it cuts out the external overload....jumping out the exteral OL, the compressor runs, but you can feel it heating up and it will eventually cut out the internal overload. I know these units are probably not worth replacing a compressor.. But I was wondering...is it possibly an internal problem w/ the compressor or could it be a low freon problem causing high pressure, and then cutting out? Is it worth putting a line tap on it to check the pressures to see? (I don't mind 'tinkering' w/ it, but I don't want to put any money in it) Thanks for your advise!
