Humming I moved my freezer to paint the wall. Now all it does is hum

Sounds like relay on compressor is bad or worse the compressor is bad. Return it

The rust shouldn't make any difference.

When you plug it in, does the interior light turn on? If not, suspect the wall outlet - test it for power by plugging in something else. If the interior light turns on, listen very closely to the freezer. It should hum. If it doesn't, toy with the freezer control inside - it may just be turned off. Turn it to about midpoint and listen very closely to it again. If still no hum, wait a short while, then feel carefully on the outside of the cabinet - it may be running through a defrost cycle. The outside of the cabinet may get warm while that's happening, especially around the door gaskets. Wait a while (half an hour, an hour, for the defrost cycle to finish - the freezer should run then.

If it never hums, then the compressor isn't running, so adding freon won't make any difference. Instead, suspect the defrost timer - that's a little electronic circuit board inside.

If it HUMS but never gets COLD, then you potentially have a freon leakage problem. It's difficult at best, though, to refill a refrigerator or freezer - they don't usually have refill taps.

Oh, yes. If the internal light never comes on but you've proven that the wall outlet has power, it's entirely possible that the plug is bad and needs to be redone.

GIVE IT TIME SO THE THE SYSTEM COULD STABILIZE IT SYSTEM FOR A FRESH STARTUP. OR HAVE CHECK TO ITS OVERLOAD UNIT THE COMPRESSOR MOTOR.

If it hums then quits and hums and quits and just keeps doing this then either the compressor start relay is burned out or the compressor is seized. Unless you are capable of diagnosing this you should have a tech check it out. If it's just a relay they are relatively cheap, but if it's the compressor it could cost more than the freezer is worth.

Hi,
The one light should be for power the other for alarm meaning the temperature has risen, which you already know.

In order to help you better I need to ask some questions about the freezer.

First off, is this an automatic defrost unit or manual defrost?
Does it have a fan inside the freezer? If so is it running
Do you see a frost build up on the back wall of the freezer closer to the bottom?
Do you hear the compressor running (the black pump behind the freezer on the bottom)? It will have a slight hum when running.
Is there frost build up anywhere else like the walls inside?

there is a blockage or leakage from the pipe line.

change the rubber washers on the compressor should work a treat...

Check to see if there is ice built up on the back wall of the freezer.
If yes, you have defrost parts failure.
If no, check the compressor fan motor. Is it running?

The clicking and humming is an indication that the compressor is faulty.needs replacement

how old is it ? and if is just humming is etheir a locked compressor wich if it is then depending on age if is less than 5 years from todays date then just call frigedaire and they will fix it for free but is it was manufacture more than five years ago then is trash , now is just the overload then just buy the part and replace it and you will see if it turns on the overload is the part siiting right on the left side on compressor , fyi the maunufactures date is on the name plate on the wall i belived is on the left hand side
