Why Your Fridge Runs But Won't Cool
These six failures account for over 90% of 'lights on, not cooling' calls we get.
No cold air circulates from the freezer into the fresh-food section. You may hear silence where a fan hum used to be.
Compressor clicks every few minutes but never runs. A $30 part on some models — but it needs to be diagnosed correctly.
Evaporator coil is a solid block of ice, choking airflow. Defrost heater, thermostat or control board replacement fixes it.
Dirty coils or a dead condenser fan overheat the compressor and it shuts down on thermal overload.
The fridge doesn't know it's warm. Faulty sensors or a failed main board stop the cooling cycle from ever starting.
Compressor runs hot but produces no cold — refrigerant leak or internal failure. We'll quote honestly against replacement.
