Haier HSW02C not cooling - Haier HSW02C

Sounds like bad start device (relay/overload) Good Luck!

Your freezr drain is blocked or frozen. What you need to do is remove the ice rack then in the front of the freezer you will see 2 or 3 plastic plugs on the freezer floor remove the plugs and there might aso be some 1/4 inch screws farther in on the freezer floor. also remove the back of the back of the freezr and then lift out the bottom floor. under the evaporator you will see a lot of ice or just fod blocing the drain. I will bet its all full of ice. Carefully remove all the ice and hot water will help once you get the buk of it out. The hot water will make sure the drain is not blocked with ice. Once its al clear install in the reverse order and things should be good. This is a common problem with this unit.Good Luck

I would say that the motor is humming because it is not turning and the click is when the overload control switches the power off. It may be a start run capacitor blown out but it may be a seized compressor motor. have a fridge mechanic check it out.

Yes your thermostat is shorted. It's just not shutting the unit off ever. A thermostat is something you can touch as a user, so no it's not that hard to get to for replacement. Also have the unit unplugged while learning how to repair your appliance.

These are pretty simple units. If you look on the back you will see a schematic. More or less there is an overload protector in series with the thermostat in series with the compressor. If the overload protector is not open and there is still no 120VAC at the compressor with the thermostat turned all the way up then the answer is a bad thermostat. If there is 120VAC at the compressor and it is not running then the compressor is bad. That's about it.

Hello
Number 1 may be the warmest.Set it to 2 or 3 and give it some time,a couple of hours to level out.

If this does not work try a higher number.

If still no luck then the thermostat or sensing bulb is bad and should be replaced.

Hi,

Many times a freezer and/or refrigeratordo not work right because of a dirty condenser coil...there are also many otherthings that can go wrong. If you are hearing a clicking or buzzing then check out thelast two tips.

If your refrigerator is running but warm, then...

Check out these tips that I wrote about that... it is a great place to starttrouble shooting your unit...and something that you can do rather then callinga repair person to do a simple thing for you...

on its side? considering the chemicals inside the freezing elements, it needs to sit upright for 24 hours before you plug it in, or you may break it. so if thats what you mean, why is it sideways?

It sounds like a compressor problem, the click is usually the start relay trying to start the compressor.
