Report abuse

My refrigerators stopped cooling and freezing. I heard a buzzing sound that lasted about ten seconds and would re-occur about every five minutes. The next day I noticed it wasn't cooling or freezing. I replaced the timer/adapter control unit but it still isn' t cooling.

Thanks,

mdshuff

It sounds as if you have a defective compressor start relay. It is located on the side of the compressor, usually contained within a black plastic housing (box). If ordered, it will most likely come with an overload proctector. Change both parts.
