I know AC systems have temperature sensor on the condenser coils to know when to kick on the condenser fan but do refrigerators have this as well? I replaced the condenser motor and it still won’t come on and the compressor is nearing 200°F . I just shorted the wiring to eliminate the switch from the relay and now it will always be running. Better to kill the new condenser motor then the compressor or relay right? Two questions:
How long could a condenser fan run before dying nonstop?
What could be causing this ? The relay or wiring possibly? Motor is getting proper voltage but the switch is not receiving the five bolts for the activation so I bypassed the motor 13.5v line over to the switch and disconnected the switch so it doesn’t run the voltage back to the relay and fry the relay.

Hello
We have found on this model if the condenser motor is good , you have a bad PCB. You main control board sends voltage down to the condenser motor. So your motherboard would be the next part I would replace, we have had several issues with these boards. Matt Ace technician
