Common Symptoms
- Repeated clicking or humming followed by compressor shutdown
- Refrigerator or freezer is too warm
- Compressor does not run or starts intermittently
- Cooling is inconsistent because the compressor fails to start reliably
- Burnt odor from the compressor-start area
Check Before Replacing
- Unplug the refrigerator and allow the compressor-start area to cool before inspection.
- Check the assembly and nearby wiring for visible heat damage, loose connections, or a burnt odor.
- With the appliance unplugged, a qualified person may check continuity between the start-device terminal sockets according to the appliance service documentation; an open reading can indicate a defective start device, but does not by itself prove the compressor is good or bad.
- If the refrigerator repeatedly clicks, confirm that the compressor is receiving the correct start-device connection before condemning the compressor.
Pro Tip
A failed PTC start device can resemble a failed compressor because both conditions may prevent compressor startup; verify the start device and its connections before replacing the compressor.
