Your compressor is not running ..the clicking sound is the compressor start relay ..hard start capacitor ..../relay/overload all in one..will fix this problem call your local appliance parts/or used appliance store for this part ..the wiring is simple //remove compressor cover to view relay ...remove it with screwdriver ..dont worry about breaking this relay .remove it to see 3 terminals ..one is start /one is run /one is common ./look at diagram on the hard start and wire it to the correct compressor pin/terminal then wire the 2 wires off old relay to the power wires to new hard start ...it will work again ...believe me ..the part cost around 20.00 let me know ..good luck../joe/

Refrigerator is not cooling

Its defrost problem, the freezer should cool, then freeze, then defrost cycle should start. In your case freezer is cooling, then freezing, but its not defrosting. That's why fridge section is not cooling.-------
