I have a Rheem Classic condensor unit(10 seer 3 ton). I replaced the fan motor and the dual cap. My compressor is not running (ZR36K3 Scroll compressor made by copeland). I put a meter on the wiring connections on the compressor, and I get 200+ ohms C to R C to S and R to S. If the info I have is correct, the max I should show is 30 ohms. assuming the 30 ohms max info is right, then I have a bad motor, which means I have to replace the compressor. My question is this... How critical is it to replace the dryer filter when replacing the compressor. The unit is just under 8 yrs old. Also There is no dryer out side the unit between the foundation wall and the unit. Is it possible this unit does not have one, or is likely to be under the house after the line runs through the wall.
