Thanks for posting sir. Just purchased a new 2023 side x side GE refrigerator from a clearance warehouse. Im a DYI guy. It turns on lights up, fans come on but neither freezer or refrigiration cools. After testing ive determined the compressor tests out good, capacitor tests good but overload relay is most likely bad. So ive ordered a new capacitor and overload relay. Hopefully itll fire up once those parts arrive and are installed. 😂 Im a bit nervous til then. These tasks can be either frustrating or satisfying. Thanks again for posting. Happy fixing!

I don't get many comments, so, although a little late, I can respond to most. I hope your fridge repair turns out well. Either way, if you have time, let me know how it went:-)

@@martyplecki7567 i sure will. Capacitor arrived yesterday but overload will be couple more days. The compressor pins tested oL. No continuity. One of the pins on bottom with one multimeter lead on top compressor pin and other on bottom pin Tests oL . No continuity. Thanks again

No pins tested for being grounded on compressor.

Dag. Parts came in. I installed them. Still not getting cold. Compressor clicks one time, a low steady buzz, and can fill a feel slight vibration on compressor. Top of compressor a little warm. Used built in diagnostics thermisters(4) pass. Fans pass. Did hard and soft reset. Im baffled.

hey thanks taking the time. Also, i have one of samsung fridge the bottom freezer does not freeze but works top one Ok. i don't see defrost issue, what you think/

It's pretty hard to diagnose things remotely, but if the bottom freezer is not cold enough to freeze it could be a temperature control module issue just like the one in my video. You may want to set it to a lower temperature and see if that makes any difference.
