Last mechanical step, not the first guess
A compressor comes out after electrics, fan, coil dirt, and charge history have been ruled in. Replacement is recover, swap, vacuum, weigh in, and a run test. A locked compressor from a single voltage event is different from a system that has been starved of gas for two summers.
We quote the labour on this page. The compressor part follows the machine. We are not a factory centre.
