I have a GE Monogram that's about 13 years old. It appears to be working great, but yesterday it sounds like a woodpecker got stuck inside. Every 5 minutes line clockwork for about 3 seconds unless the door is opened, then every 3 minutes till it cools back down. Does it sound like something is going out? I'd like to fix it before it actually breaks. Any clues?

HELLO!!!

HA HA HA NICE JOKE !!! HMMM TRY SWITCHING IT OFF FOR FEW HOURS AND CLEANING THE TRAY AND FREEZER!!

SOURCE: GE side by side not cooling properly/outside surface hot

please check the condenser fan motor. it is probably not running or the condenser is very dirty.

remove the rear cover and it will show you the compressor and the condenser fan.
if the fan is not running, try to rotate it manually and feel if it is sticking .

if it is, it may just need the old wd 40 lubricant.

tnx 4 using fixya,

I can't get to the rear of the compactor. How do I get the front off to get to the rest of it?

Temporary solution.
Open the top hook. leave it open overnight.
Check in the morning if the temperatures comes back to normal. It works for me!

the refrigerator should be leaning back enough to allow it to reclose. there are hieght adjusters behind the grill on front
