I compared using a multimeter to diagnose a fridge compressor versus just swapping parts based on a hunch. The multimeter saved me $150 in unnecessary parts.

What specific multimeter test told you the compressor was fine?

Checked for continuity between the three terminals with the ohms setting. If you get a reading between each pair, the windings are good and it's probably a different issue.
