That is most likely the start capacitor that turns on the compressor / motor. It could be the run capacitor if the fridge seems to be running. Many devices appliance require capacitors to turn over motors - A/C, Pool motor etc. This is relatively a cheap fix - but could damage the control board as well.

    The buzzing is an indication of a problem that could get worse. You would need to diagnose the capacitor issue and replace the capacitor most likely.

Klh powered subwoofer model ASW10-120B... when you plug in to power... it makes a loud buzzing/humming noise

I would check the caps on the power supply. They are rather large electrolytic capacitors that will look like they burst and/or leaking. When these die, the caps ground and the sub will make a loud buzzing sound. If you are handy with a soldering iron you can replace them yourself. Replace them with the same voltage or a little bigger and same with the size.

If the cap. says 16v 4700pF on it, for example, a 20v 5300pF or a 16v 6200mF cap. will work for this application.

This sounds to me like a busted compressor, nothing more you can do to it. You must call a repairman to test it and replace it, a very delicate procedure that requires specialized equipment.

Icemaker makes a loud buzzing noise when dispensing ice.

Hi,

This would be your dispenser door solenoid making the noise, if left alone with out replacing it may end up causing the control board to fail. The part is number 13 on this diagram. http://www.whirlpoolparts.ca/parts/fspShowPage.php?model=MSD2732GRW&pageNo=17

61005884 is the part number you will need to get.
