My frig will be working fine then it trips the GFI outlet. you reset the out and it will trip it again a few minutes later.

replace gfci

To be short, the only thing in the machine that really has the capability of causing that is the compressor. Its got a floating short in and when it makes contact it trips the outlet/breaker. Check for any exposed wires just to be sure but I'm pretty certain that the compressor is the culprit and either it or the machine needs to be replaced.

Good News!!! GFI outlets are made to trip when a large amount of power is pulled through them. A GFI is basically a small circuit breaker.Your television set is probably just pulling more amperage than the GFI is rated to handle. That means the GFI is working properly And so is the TV!

My Brinkmann 810-7080-4 Gourmet Electric Smoker was tripping my GFI after it sat for the winter. Would heat for about 3 minutes then trip the GFI. would keep tripping GFI until it cooled down and once again would trip after about 3 minutes.
--SOLVED: took 00 steel wool and olive oil to the heating element and removed what looked like a green fungus. Element is working fine now, not tripping the GFI and will run a full four hours for smoking!
Hope this helps save someone some money in purchasing a new heating element ($40).

Maybe over pulling more amps the the GFCI curcuit can handle. Check all the GFCI plug and verify if there are anything else plugged in. Including hair dryers and / or flat irons.

If the seals are damaged, water will leak into motor section and cause GFI to trip and yet the pump will seem that it is running fine if plugged into a non-GFI receptacle

First make sure than the condensing coil in the freezer is clean of dust and dirt(it is behind the grill vent in the bottom side of the freezer where the compresor is) If it is clough brush the dirt off after you unplugit.When is clean wait a few minutes ,5, and plugg it back at the GFI outlet and see if work If still tripped the outlet you may have to replace it.

hello, if you plug the compressor into a none gfi outlet does the compressor still cut off ? it could be one a short in your compressor causing the gfi to trip our your gfi has a ground try the compressor in a diffrent outlet, when you use any other electronic equipment on the gfi does it still trip ? if you use the compressor in a diffrent outlet that's none gfi this should sholve your problem most likely a bad gfi outlet or the compressor is drawing to much amp's.

try different outlets in another room to see if that dosent help you may have a shortin the cleaner but i think you may be overloading the breaker

Refigerators should NOT be on GFI-protected circuits. Problems have occasionally been reported when plugging a refrigerator, freezer or other motor-driven appliance into GFI-protected circuits. These appliances generally have a motor that pulls significant startup current. Due to the electrical characteristics of motors, the startup current can look like someone getting electrocuted, causing the protection system to trip. The best remedy is to connect these appliances to a non-GFI outlet. Usually outlets that are expected to serve such appliances will not have GFI's installed.
