Check the compressor itself,
ohm out the two windings and ground
you should read continuty between the poles
and open to ground
id be willing to bet your start windings is open or has a direct short to ground

My frigidaire AC starts cooling fine but stops blowing cold air after few minutes and it does not cool at all. I haved turned it off and re-started it and it does the same thing

The compressor is being prematurely turned off. That explains why the cooling stops after a few moments. Either the thermostat is responsible or the electronics working with the therm are responsible for the anomaly.

Freon level is fine because it does cool when compressor is running. U might also want to check the start/run capacitor. That sucker starts the motor and keeps it running after the start. If the run section goes bad the motor will usually stop after it starts.

Why does 15 amp 250 volt fuse in my lg refridgerator keep blowing

the 15 amp fuse is blowing because the current draw to run the compressor exceeds 15 amps
that problem could be from a failed start/ run capacitor or a failed compressor motor (I am betting on the capacitor)
the best answer is to get a fridge technician to check it out as the capacitor is a cheap fix while the compressor unit is as costly as a new fridge

Hire a tech it will be cheaper and safer. You may have a capacitor that is bad and not starting the compressor.

Fuse keeps blowing on my Whynter portable ac

Is your compressors motor capacitor replaceable? I know that on a split system, a dead capacitor (typically a 35uF) can cause increased current draw, to the point of blowing fuses, though I've never had to replace one on a portable unit. I usually replace them with a 30uF capacitor, roughly the size of a "200ml can of softdrink".

Why does lawn tractor blow fuse eveytime when attempting to start?

It could be one of a few things causing the fuse to blow. The ignition switch could be defective, It could be a bare wire grounding out somewhere, It could be the alternator or regulator / rectifier. If you don't know how to repair electronic problems you may want to hire a lawn and garden repair technician.

The clima control unit wont start after it was disconnected. Totally ded! All light, fan, etc. is ded. XC70-2001

I hate to state the obvious, but it sounds like it was not reconnected. There are 3 possibilities, no power, no ground, or bad fuse.

Fuse Blows quickly?the moment I turn swith ON

Hi,

Check the ampere rating of your compressor, which is indicated in the nameplate. you can size up your fuse from there. the ampere rating of your fude should be bigger than the compressor amp rating.

Hope it helps

My heat pump won't cool my house. I have a honeywell rth7500 programmable therostat. It is blowing cool air out of the outside unit and the lines are normal temp.

Warm air should be blowing out the outdoor unit. Have a technician evaluate if the compressor is functioning. There are many reasons why the compressor is not working. One of them being a start capacitor not working. Another being out of Freon due to a leak. Good luck
