Question about GE (PSS26MSRSS) Side by Side Refrigerator

1 Answer

GE - SIDE BY SIDE MODEL TFX25JR - Continous HUM

Both the Fridge and Freezer still works.

The humming or buzzing is coming from the bottom back
area of the fridge.

Afraid to unplug it, thinking maybe it might stop
working altogether.

There appears to be NO FROST any where. The ice and water dispenser still works.

The fridge is about 10 years old.

Any ideas ?

Probably the condenser fan motor is going out they will often make noise for a long time before anyone notices. Get it looked at soon. overheating the compressor on that old of a fridge could spell trouble.

GE profile fridge making loud humming noise
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 you plug it back it, it should work fine.

My Maytag MFD2560HES bottom fridge is making a loud humming noise.
Any time there is the sound of humming it is important to locate where the noise is coming from. Sometimes fans wear to a point that at one speed the sound as if humming. Sometimes compressors hum with more catastrophic results. Because your model is a bottom freezer it would be a good idea to open drawer to freezer and see if the sound is from fan in freezer or if pulled away from wall is the sound the fan or compressor area? I believe I will be able to locate a service manual but I will need you to help me pinpoint the location of the loud sound so we can get the sounds back to normal. Let me know if you are able to try that and what you find, Sea Breeze

Fridge and freezer not working lights come on air is blowing in side cooling unit is clicking
If the "hum and click" is comong from the back underneath, the compressor is not starting. Could be a bad compressor, or the starting relay.

Defrost drain is located behind the freezer wall at the bottom of the freezer. Remove back cover and flush out drain using a turkey baster and hot (not boiling) water.

Buzzing intermittent
It sounds like the ice maker. If you don't have the water hooked up, and the ice sensor bar is in the down position, the ice maker assembly will attempt to make ice continuously.
Solution is easy: raise the ice sensor bar until it clicks in the up position. It will lock in this position, and the ice maker will not cycle anymore.
