Frige gets hot and makes clicking noises.

Hello. I have a Haier mini fridge. When I first plug the fridge in it starts up fine, but after a few hours of use it begins making clicking noises about every 5 minutes and the back of it feels VERY hot. The inside of the fridge and small freezer compartment also turn very warm. What can I do to fix this?

Sounds like the compressor is not working very well the clicking is the compressor starter trying to start the compressor. May be low on freon or bad compressor. You can probaly buy one cheaper than fixing this one

SOURCE: Fridge not cooling compressor works intermitently

If the compressor starts and runs for a few seconds it could be the relay. Or it could be the compressor itself has failed. When a compressor starts and runs for a short period it is possible that the relay contacts are arced together which would have both the start and run winding in the motor engaged at the same time for more than 3 seconds. This would result in the compressor tripping out on the thermal overload. It depends on what type of relay your compressor has. If it is a thermal relay, unplugging the refrigerator for about 15 minutes would allow the relay to cool off and reset.

SOURCE: panel between fridge and freezer very hot and no sound at all

Dont know about the noise prob. but I can help with the over heating cabinet. Your condensing coil is dirty and needs cleaned. it is located under your refrigerator or behind the back panel. You should use a brush and vac. it out. Air must travel through the tubing freely in order to cool properly. It should be easy to find following the tubes coming out of your compressor.

I have a haier mini fridge model #HSW02C when i plug it in it humms for a few seconds then it clicks then i hear nothing could this be the relay? any sugestions?

I would say that the motor is humming because it is not turning and the click is when the overload control switches the power off. It may be a start run capacitor blown out but it may be a seized compressor motor. have a fridge mechanic check it out.

Fridge won't start up.

have you tried testing the plug. Has the fuse blown in it? try changing the plug to see, then if this doesn't work try a different power outlet.

Haier hsp03wna not working

The click you heard is the thermal overload. This snaps open when the compressor is too hot.
Unplug the unit for 24 hours and don't move it.
Then plug it in and see if it comes back on temp.

Haier Model No. HSA04WNC WW/BPG fridgefreezer loud rumbling noise

Rumbling sound is not good. Check to see if it is making the noise with the door open. If so - it probably is a fan blade scraping. If it keeps making the noise - it is likely the compressor - either a faulty relay or capacitor. Or maybe the compressor is faulty. You'll need to be handy with a multimeter to check these out though.

I have a mini fridge at school, a small Haier. My fridge is getting power and the motor gets very hot but the fridge is not cooling, not even a little... any ideas???

Hi ejb9,

I'm Harvey the Master Plumber.

Your question is: You have a mini fridge at school, a small Haier. Your fridge is getting power and the motor gets very hot but the fridge is not cooling, not even a little... any ideas???

May be low on freon or cloged expantion valve. You're going to need a certified tech to check and repair. Maybe it's time to look at the cost of repair verses replacement.

Feel free contact me again!
