PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION
NOISE The refrigerator is not properly
leveled.
Check if the noise goes away
after you level the refrigerator.
The condenser is not fastened
correctly. Copper tubings are in
contact with metal.
While the compressor is
working, check to see if metal
parts are in contact with one
another and/or if the screws
that fasten the condenser are
tightened.
The evaporator and/or
condenser fans are loose.
Check if the fans are securely
fastened. Also, check if the fan
blades are loose, broken or
crooked. If so, change the
faulty blade.
Compressor has an internal
noise.
If the noise persists after all
other measures have been
taken, it may be originating
from the compressor.
