Hi!
A relay starts the compressor with a higher voltage and then quickly kicks out
It does a lot of clicking (trying to start over and over again)
If thats what is happening with yours
Its best for a tech to replace The relay but you can do it
Take your model number to your Local Appliance parts store they will have a diagram
showing you how to install the relay. Its called a hard start relay
I use part no ERP410 POWER START RELAY, CAPACITOR AND OVERLOAD all in one. (110 v)

Loud humming noise

Have you had the noise before or did it just start?

Try to isolate where the noise is coming from. From under the fridge? On the back wall of the freezer side? If those two, could possibly be one of the fans.

My frig makes a humming sound off and on. I can

It appears that the balance of the machine is not correct. Please try to adjust the level by adjusting the adjustable wheels at the bottom. If it does not stop Please remove the back panel and when it starts humming observe which of the part is viberating or making noise. If loose tighten it or fix it. It is not a major problem and has nothing to do with the performance of frig

The recall was for units that had embraco compressors. the relay would burn up and not start the comperssor. (hum and click) some amanas had tecumseh compressors. They would just scize up and not run (hum and click)No recall. remove the back cover and see what name is on your compressor. If its hot and trying to start, Embraco needs new relay, Tecumseh needs to be replaced with a embraco compressor.

Freezer makes a humming noise and is not freezing

. 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

sounds like it may be overheating.. Might try to take apart and see how much lint you got built up on the motor... may be causing overheating Is this the ONLY time it makes the humming noise when you go to start it??? May also be the early warning of bad start winding or start relay on the motor
