Buzzing noise My refrigerator/freezer just starting making a buzzing noise. It last only about 30 seconds then stops with a loud click. Sometimes it happens about every 2 minutes. Any suggestions?

Is it buzzing from the bottom rear of the unit?

check brake fluid level.

master cylinder might be of interest, but i would check the fluid level first

You have one of two problems going on. Your fan is spinning at hitting the sides. Or your compressor is shot which seems to be more the problem and even though it is cold the humming sound is a warning for you that the compressor is shot and it is more affordable to replace the fridge then the compressor. Sometimes compressor can cost more then the fridge.

some thing could be toching the fan at the back of the fridge or freeze fan making noise

check you compressor relay. could be bad.fan motor might be dead

I can help , It was the relay , they can blow when they experience a hard start , by replacing it and having the same issue this means the compressor is locked up , they sell a booster for this that can sometimes free the compressor up , its called an rco410 , this part will be your only chance to get your compressor going again. let me know if you have any other questions and tell me how it works out.

refrigerator and freezer not getting cold

hello sbarrry2 it sound like the motor that is running continously is the condenseer fan and the buzzing and then the click would be the compressor trying to start up and going off on overlaod. shut the unit off at the swiutch, let it cool down (3) hours possibly and then try to turn it back on. this should work.
