I was about to use it but will not turn on. Connected but no power? , No lights on. Fans not turning on. What would I check first?

GX CS4 compressor issue?
- Thread starter Powerstroke
- Start date
Pull the cover and check the line connectors. They attached with male to female crimp connectors. Could have come loss or wasn't crimped properly and a wire pulled out. One of mine wasn't crimped well due to the diode jumping positive and negative wires.
Volt meter would tell you wether or not there's power at any given point.

First guess is that you are attempting to utilize the compressor on AC current. Have you tried to connect to an automotive battery and check for function. If it runs on the battery and not AC current you may have a board issue. Have you checked all the electrical connections within the case and to the mother board? If none of this works I suggest you contact GX directly: [email protected] . They have been very responsive to any questions and issues I've experienced.

Mine did that the other day. I pulled the cover off and just pressed all the connections. I didn’t remove any connections, I just seated everything. Plugged ‘er in and whalla, she fired up. Strange I think, but thankful it’s an easy no cost correction. There’s a decent video on YT that the guy walks you through it (not Target Forge).

One of my CS3 motor wires became disconnected, similar to what others have said. I squeezed the female bullet connectors and plugged them in again and problem was solved. The yellow butt connectors are the "offending" motor power wires.

A multi meter is the safest and most sure fire way to find out what's going on, wall outlet to motor leads.
