Running a compressor unloaded reduces energy consumption and wear on the compressor components. This mode minimizes the mechanical stress and heat generation, leading to longer equipment life and lower maintenance costs. Additionally, it allows for quicker response times when full capacity is needed, ensuring efficient operation in variable demand scenarios. Overall, unloading enhances efficiency and reliability in the compressor's performance.

If the fan outside is not running the compressor will overheat and if the fan inside the house is not running the compressor will get liquid refrigerant back to it and lock up! Neither is good for the compressor.
Typical causes of a compressor not running are: low coolant, blown fuse in compressor circuit, bad compressor, bad temperature sensor.
If the compressor has stopped running altogether the AC will not work.
Is compressor running? If refrigerant charge is low it will not
yes but if the compressor does not work there is no reason for it.
If the compressor is running, either the compressor has an internal fault or the refrigerant has been lost. If the compressor is not running the thermostat or the compressor may have failed. If the compressor is getting hot and switching off at regular intervals, the refrigerant has been lost. In any case a refrigeration engineer visit will be needed to prove the fault.
The compressor fan may not be running due to a malfunction in the fan motor, a faulty capacitor, or a problem with the electrical connections. It is important to troubleshoot and address the issue promptly to prevent further damage to the compressor unit.
If the clutch disengages properly then the compressor should not be running. Most likely the clutch itself is bad instead of the compressor.
The compressor will stay running only because there is a leak in the air system somewhere and the compressor is trying to play catch up.It will burn out if left to run continuously ...
