I have a whirlpool chest freezer and the warning light has come on it was stored in the garage but was working fine,then moved into the house.the compressor kicks in for about 10 seconds then cuts out.
A refrigerant line may have been damaged in the move, loss of refrigerant or a kinked line has stopped the compressor from working, need to attach refrigerant gages to find the problem and know the refrigerant level

Remove the panel covering the compressor. Remove the relay plugged on the side of the compressor and shake it. If it rattles or has any burned spots it is shorted out. Try replacing it first. Make sure you replace it with the correct replacement, not a fit-all. If this is not the problem you will need to replace the compressor. If it is less than 5 yrs old the compressor should still be in warranty. If so call Sears, it will be repaired free of charge. If it is out of warranty buy a new freezer.

yes you may encounter problems come sumer depending how hot it gets where you live but during the winter you should have no problems.

the noise your hearing indicates the possibility of a bad start relay on the comp or possibly it just came loose during the move. on the side of the compressor you will see 2-3 wires running into an electrical connection reseat this first. if still no operation replace teh relay. you can purchase thru any reputable appliance parts dealer. after replacing the relay if you have no operation then likely problem is seized comp.
domestic freezers do not have low pressure switches that indicate low freon charge.
