Not much you can check as it is a shorting problem
could be a start/run capacitor failure ore a compressor failure
call in a technician for a proper diagnosis

Break is tripping due to over amperage rating of that breaker. Be sure you have the correct amperage rated for that piece of equipment. Need some additional info. Does it run for a while then trip? Does it trip almost immediately when turned on/plugged in?

SOURCE: fridge keeps blowing the breaker

Depending on what is causing the breaker to blow will be important to know. Refrigerators do draw a good bit of power on a 20 amp circuit especially when the refrigerator goes into defrost. Refrigerators are made to run on a 20 amp circuit without other machines or appliances using the same power circuit. Circuit breakers weaken over time too especially if they have more than they are. rated for plugged into the same circuit. And your circuit may be doing its job by detecting an excessive draw of power when the refrigerator is plugged in. You must have someone that knows electricity to inspect your refrigerator for shorting and the circuit it is plugged to for correct wiring for every ones safety. Thanks, Sea Breeze

SOURCE: A M-G20010 keeps freezing coil every sevral weeks.

make sure doors close and seal all the way. are the doors being open constantly and in a high humidity area?
Is the set temp too low? How many defrost per 24 hours. Should be 4 and about 20 minutes each cycle.
Start there.
Hope this helps and let me know if I can be of any more help.

As the weather is getting warmer for many people their freezer2_bing.gif and/or refrigerator do not work right because of a dirty condenser coil...

Check out this tip that I wrote about that... it is a great place to start trouble shooting your unit...and something that you can do rather then calling a repair person to do a simple thing for you...

I have a traulsen freezer/refrigerator. Is there anything I need to do to convert it from fridge to freezer, other than adjust thermostat.

You probably will not be able to get much lower than about 28 degrees without having freeze up problems. A freezer uses different and more controls. Also, the compressor and expansion device may need to be changed. You need to do more homework on this as it could be a very expensive conversion. Let me know if I can help further.

Traulsen refrigerator too warm the unit is only 2 years old and current temperature is 44

start with the easy fixes. Check and be sure that the condenser coil, the one by the compressor, is really clean. The system needs to "Breathe" in order to do it's job.
Start there and let me know if I can be of further help.

MY traulsen 20010 Microprocesor reads 34 degrees but inside the temperature is 20 degrees .It freezes everything help please.

Your temp sensor is most likely the trouble. It is reading a false temp so it keeps the unit running trying to reach set temp. I would go there first as it is much cheaper than replacing the controller.
