Re: New Compressor Won't Turn On

I'm thinking either the sensor on the high side is bad, or, like you said, the relay is bad.

I also disconnected the electrical connecters and used a volt meter on all three electrical connectors going to the compressor and could not get any voltage on any of them with the AC on full blast in Max recirc mode.
