SOURCE: Frigidaire side by side fridge

Power to compressor must be off (about 5 minutes) before a restart should be tried. Some of these relays are thermal and must cool down before power is reapplied.

SOURCE: Freezer losing temp... intermittent buzzing sound

Either the start device for the compressor is bad or the compressor has died. The easiest way to tell is to replace the start device. It cost around 30-40 bucks and the part number for it is 218721119. In most of these cases its just a bad start device. The start device is located on the side of the compressor in the bottom back of the unit. It will have a capacitor attached to it that you will want to keep and stick on the new one. If you need anymore help just let me know. Good Luck!

SOURCE: Fridge not blowing cold, Buzzing inside black ball "compressor"

The black ball you are reffering to is the compressor.It is trying to start..that is the buzzing.The start,and overload relay is probably bad..hopefully.Because if it isn't the compressor may be bad.Where your wires plug into the compressor...this is the relay.it should come off fairly easy.It is much cheaper to replace this part..than buying a new fridge.For instance i buy them for g.e. refrigerators all the time from an appliance repair shop at cost,and they are less than 4 dollars for me.So I assume they aren't too expensive retail.

Amana side by side fridge and freezer not cold.The model #ASD2624HES I have done some research and I think it might be the relay switch or the compresser.If anyone had has this problem with this model...

. Cut everything off for a few minutes then turn it back on and listen for a click from the compressor relay as the compressor tries to start.
Is the compressor motor running.If no check starter/overload relay.
Check to see if the condenser fan at the back underneath near the compressor is running. If no check fan.

Are the condenser coils near there warm or room temp. should be warm



Part 4 on this diagram is your relay. http://www.searspartsdirect.com/partsdirect/getSubComp.pd?modelNumber=ASD2624HES&productCategoryId=0165000&brandId=1268&modelName=AMANA-REFRIGERATION&diagramPageId=00013&componentDescription=COMPRESSOR&documentId=M0608085&backToLink=Return%20to%20subcomponent%20list Here's how you can check it. http://www.acmehowto.com/howto/appliance/refrigerator/refrigerator.php

A loud intermitant buzzing coming from the back of the fridge

either the noise is coming form he ice maker fill valve( but if its of and still aking noise i doubt it. it also possible that the noise is coming from the compressor itself, overheating nad trying to restart in which case would give a slight "buzz" noise for 5secs or so then "click" off, and wait maybe 3 min to restart again. look for melted ice andperhaps your ice dream ont as hard as it should be???

Freezer and fridge not cooling properly

Clean it up. Check under it and behind, clean ,vacume and or blow out all dust and check the fins on the bottom, a soft brush and portable air compressor work really well but very dusty, take out side if possible, or just vacume really well.

Fridge stopped working suddenly

Sounds like the relay (start device) on the compressor has failed.  This is a very common problem especially for models that are 3-5 yrs old.  I would replace that first.
