Hi friends, i'm an electrical technician and i understand air conditioners of the window type very well, mine is an LG W-242CM 24.000BTU, i did the preventive wash 6 months ago and 2 days ago a failure in the front radiator started, the top part freezes and the bottom part does not cool enough, i think it can be due to low freon pressure, My questions are several: 1= Does the compressor of this LG air conditioner model have a low pressure sensor to stop the compressor? 2=When recharging the freon equipment should i do a circuit sweep where the freon passes and replace the filter? because in this moments i'm having a very rough situation, i live in venezuela, you already know how we are because of the great inflation in the country, i'm unemployed, i thank any help that you can give me, thank you friends :wink:

hola amigo:-1- You will have to detect visually traces of oil, leakage signal, also welds or if they put a pinch valve, see if it leaks.2- It would be nice if you get a manometer and tell us what's the pressure that's working.3- it is always convenient if the cooling circuit is accessed for some reason. to change the filter.4- control the amperage, if it's the remote control type, observate the thermistor that's located on the handle, evaporator or the front serpentine.5- Check that the fan or motor fan spins free, also that it is spinning slow, check the capacitor, i hope this can help you

friend from Venezuela, if you're an electrical technician you have a good resource to undertake air conditioner and refrigeration repairs, start experiencing with your equipment and read about regrigeration theory and you'll do the practice with us. ola amigo de Venezuela, si eres electricista tienes un buen recurso para emprender en reparaciones de aire acondicionado y refrigeraci?n,comienza experimentando en tu equipo y lee sobre la teoria de refrigeraci?n que la pr?ctica la haces con nosotros.I answer you, these small equipments don't have high or low pressure sensor.The symptom that you describe is most commonly refrigerant leakage, that you must check with a manometer. In the service pump you must insert a puncture valve,connect it to the manifold through a blue cooling hose on the low pressure gauge. Insert the alex key on the puncture valve and rotate it to penetrate the tip and break the pipe, then rotate in the opposite direction so the regrigerant gets to the manometer and the low pressure can be measured, which in a regular state should be 60 PSI while the air conditioner is onTo freeze, the evaporator must be at 10 or 20 poundsIf that's the situation, you must find the leak and weld it with autogenousthen you will have to vacuum, with a vacuum pump for about five minutesWithout air getting in, supply the R22 refrigerant, you'll have to buy a Kg and charge until the manometer gets to 60 PSI, at this moment, the return or suction of the compressor will sweatIf you can seal the hole of the puncture valve, do it, otherwise, close it and leave it stuck.As you may realize, the repairing process ain't so simple and if you don't have the tools, it will be more economic to entrust the repair to a specialized service centerI hope my appreciation helps you
