So is there a problem now?
It stopped me at 200 characters! Right now I only had a few things in it along was a Ramenkin of water. When I saw that the ice was turning to water, I moved all of my food to another. It is making a humming noise, cold air is coming from the bottom, But I shook it and it worked. Did I knock a wire off or dust? It is not cooling.It stopped me at 200 characters!

It worked fine for 2 weeks after I shook the **** out of it. And then the ice started to melt and I moved what little was in both sides to another fridge. It makes a short humming noise for 20-30 seconds then stops and you can hear the fan.It worked fine for 2 weeks after I shook the **** out of it.

It makes the humming noise for about 15-20 seconds when first plugged in and after about 10-12 minutes. It is a monotone sound in the key of G. It doesn't variate at all- just like humming the note G.It makes the humming noise for about 15-20 seconds when first plugged in and after about 10-12 minutes. It is a monotone sound in the key of G.

Re: Fridge started to make a humming Unplugged it,let it...
What sort of "humming" noise? Refrigeration systems rely upon vapor compression to operate -- meaning occasionally to maintain temp a compressor will kick in which can hum.

The door being open so long caused warm moist air to collect and freeze inside the unit.
Take everything out, unplug it and let it thaw out for an entire day. All the frost will thaw, and probably run water all over the place so put towels down.
when it stops cooling, you will see some ice build up in the freezer. Letting it sit unplugged melts the ice and you will see some water under the fridge. Connect power and it works. Cause: don't overload the fridge and the freezer. Make sure the doors close snugly. Clean all lint build ups by vacuuming under and behind the fridge after switching off power.
A COUPLE THINGS U SAY FREEZER IS FINE FRIDGE IS NOT? THE FAN NOISE MAY BE DUE TO ICE BUILD UP DUE TO A DEFECTIVE BAD DEFROST TERMINATOR. WHICH EVENTUALLY WILL BUILD ICE UP IN FREEZER AND FRIDGE? HINDER COLD AIR CIRCULATION. ANOTHER THING TO LOOK AT IS UR FREEZER AND FRIDGE THERMISTORS AND UR COLD CONTROL THERMOSTAT. EVEN UR AIR FLOW DAMPER CONTROL VENT AND KNOB SETTINGS? ARE THEY TO FAR OPEN OR CLOSED? ARE U ABLE TO HEAR THE FAN AND COMPRESSOR RUNNING? ANY CLICKING SOUNDS?
MINE WAS DOING THE SAME THING WITH A MAYTAG, AND THE PROBLEM WAS ICE BEHIND THE PANEL IN THE FREEZER. ONCE YOU THAW THE ICE AND CLEAN UP THE MESS MAKE SURE IT IS SEALED TIGHT. NO MORE WATER ON THE FLOOR. THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM WAS SOMEONE LEFT THE DOOR AJAR. THOUGHT YOU WOULD WANT TO KNOW.
did you feel the compressor runing?if not , need to check have power to the compressor. if power ok. i think the start relay or capacitor is bad. but make sure the condensor not drity. sometime it cause the problem. good luck
Usually that is from the water line freezing up. Behind your refrigerator drawers there is either a plastic tank or a coil of plastic tube........That is where the water runs so your dispenser puts out chilled water. If your fridge gets too cold that will form ice inside and stop the water from flowing. You can defrost it with a hair dryer or just let the fridge sit open for a few hours. Another thing could be the water valve. When you press the water lever on the dispenser do you hear a noise? Kind of a humming noise. Well, that is your water valve, so if you hear it then it is probably working.
The defrost timer will turn off the compressor and its cooling fan. At the same time it turns on the defrost heater, and usually leaves the freezer fan running. Defrost can take half an hour, easy. As soon as the defrost thermostat is satisfied, the defrost heater is supposed to turn off, and the compressor may come back on. The defrost timer is about the size of a cell phone, with about five wires going to it in a plug. It has a small dial on it that only goes one way. You can mark it and wait a half hour to see if it moves.
It has a plugged defrost drain. You may need to defrost for 24 hours with unit unplugged and doors open. UNPLUG FIRST!! f still leaks, you need to remove floor of freezer, then the back wall of freezer. Remove ice. At center rear under coils is the drain hole that is plugged up. Use hair dryer to melt ice. Pour hot water in this area to uncover drain. With hot water in area, you can put a 1/4 diam. hose or copper pipe in drain and blow into it while pressing down. It will slowly go through ice, clearing drain.
