The relay kicks on every few minutes for 7 seconds and then cuts off. The compressor is pretty warm and the fan runs. If anyone has any ideas it would be very helpful.

Hi,

If your lucky it's just a bad start relay on the compressor. If your not lucky you have a bad compressor.

I replace a lot of start relays on this in the 5-7 year old range.
