Diagnostic field record
Two LG refrigerator compressor diagnostic records from San Jose
Two San Jose LG refrigerators with cooling complaints had compressor-terminal measurements recorded during diagnosis. These records show why compressor-related work was proposed for those units, and where the evidence stops.

Two appliances with cooling complaints
Two San Jose diagnostic visits involved LG refrigerators with cooling complaints: an LMXS30796S and an LFXS30766D. Each inspection recorded compressor-terminal measurements. The findings below explain why compressor-related work was proposed for these particular units.
LMXS30796S: recorded electrical measurements
The LMXS30796S report states that measurements were taken directly at the compressor terminals. It records approximately 9.2 ohms for one winding and open readings for the remaining windings, together with inadequate cooling. The accompanying control-panel photograph is an appliance view, not an independent measurement of compartment temperatures.
LFXS30766D: an inoperative compressor
The LFXS30766D report describes an inoperative compressor and two open winding measurements. Internal compressor failure was recorded as the conclusion for that appliance. The findings belong to this particular refrigerator, rather than a general diagnosis for every cooling complaint.
Recommended work and its limits
Both records proposed compressor-related sealed-system work, including a filter drier and subsequent testing. The reviewed records do not provide a completed installation report or a verified final temperature result. The cases therefore illustrate the basis for a recommendation, rather than a promised outcome or a blanket diagnosis for other LG refrigerators.

Questions about this case
Does a warm LG refrigerator always need a compressor?
These two records describe specific measured faults. They do not establish the cause of a different appliance’s cooling complaint.
Was a refrigerant leak confirmed in both cases?
No. The field note reports the documented compressor measurements and does not add an independently confirmed leak finding.
