Kenmore 3.1 cu ft. 2-Door Compact Refrigerator, purchased two days ago, makes high pitched whistling noise. Stops when you move the fridge, but starts back up again right away. Figure it has something to do with the fan but there's no Troubleshooting tips in the manual for this situation.

What you need is a new updated computer main board. Thay are fairly cheap and easy to install. My GE Side By Side did the same thing and the new motherboard worked like a charm. I think that this is the one you need but you can email the seller with your model number and he will tell you which one to get WR55X10552 GE Refrigerator Mother Board fits WR55X10335
GOOD LUCK

Try to defrost the unit, if it wont work check the air vents if air is
present. Check also if some of your stuff may be obstructing the air
vent.

Mine was making a moaning, whistling noise coming from just above the ice maker. It happened when the fan speed changed. I learned on this site that the motherboard was probably defective.
Rather than go thru GE, we found a new one online for 66 bucks. I replaced it in about ten minutes and it's all fixed. Poor materials on the original, but this site was very helpful.
