SOURCE: Refrigerator is not cooling properly/fan is not running

HI,

The click and hum your hearing is most likely the compressor trying to start. The most common problem is a bad start relay on the compressor. In rare cases the compressor may be bad. If you are mechanically inclined you can replace the relay yourself for less than 50 dollars. You will need model and serial number off of the unit and order the part by those numbers. if the compressor is bad you will need to hire a good service company

anu further question don't hesitate to contact me.

thanks,

could be the fan - take back panel off and check it runs. could also be the compressor shutting down on overheat after running a while

Try unplugging it for 30 seconds and then plug it in again. It may reset itself that way.

The freezer section of my whirlpool double door refrigerator becomes too cool while refrigerator section does not cool lower than 56 deg F. Setting of Freezer section is at minimum cool (extreme left)...

when you open the freezer door you should hear a fan running, that's what cools your refrigerator section. If you don't hear that fan, that may be the problem. Also if there is frost on the back panel of the freezer that also may indicate a defrost problem, which could cause the same problems

Side by side, refrigerator works, but freezer does not The freezer just started thawing everything. We can still hear something running in the refrigerator.

This is unusual. The more common set of circumstances is that the freezer works but the refrigerator doesn't. The cold air in a side-by-side is produced on the freezer side and is than transferred throughout the freezer and to the refrigerator by a fan in the freezer.

You say you hear something running in the refrigerator. This could be the freezer fan. It is located behind an access panel in the freezer. This fan should run.

You should also hear the compressor (underneath the refrigerator) running. If this doesn't run, you will not get cooling. Also, there should be a compressor fan (underneath the refrigerator close to the compressor) running. This fan removes heat from the refrigerant coils and transfers the heat to the outside. If this fan doesn't run, proper cooling cannot be obtained.

Check these things out.
