hello,
i recently got a compressor from a fridge and want to use it as an air compressor for airbrushing. i can not seem to find any info on this particular compressor or wiring diagram. i did find some information about the wiring. i can get it working but it seems to operate funny. i attached line and neutral and it came on. then i unplugged it, plugged it back in an got an ground hum. it made a slight humming noise. i am not sure what this is. i unplugged it for a minute, plugged back in and it worked. it seems to do this. as though there is some charge in the capacitor. it has a relay, i believe. and a small round object which i think is a starting capacitor. i am not sure what is going on with it. any help or advice would be great. thanks
simon
