Default Compressor Broken??

So I've been working on my chest freezer conversion for about 4 weeks now and was just putting the finishing touches on it when my compressor shut off. I had the top open for about an hour while working on it and the compressor was running about 45min of that time. I upped the temp on the thermostat so I didn't over work it, but it just shut off randomly. I decreased the temp on the thermostat to try to get it to come back on and the thermostat clicked like it usually does but the compressor didn't turn on. Did I overheat it or something? Is there such a thing as a over heat sensor that might have shut off the compressor to avoid over heating? I'm really bummed
