Dirty condensor
Clog in the freon system some where (often filter drier, or orifice or
TXV)
Dirty evaporator
Low freon

If the compressor is getting too hot, it's very likely dirty
condensor.


Hey Stumpy do you EVER learn? Freon is a trade name. It's refrigerant you are
referring to. Can you learn?
