Default Maytag Refrig making noise not working
Brand: Maytag
Model Number: MCD2257HES
Age: 1 - 4 years

My Maytag Refrigerator is making a loud humming noise in the rear by the compressor. It appears to try to start and then it clicks off. This process takes approximately 3 to 5 seconds every 10 minutes. This refrig is only 1 1/2 years old. Is my compressor out?

Default relay or compressor

may also be the compressor. I had the overload relay change and noise was louder. They will be changing the compressor tomorrow.

good luck.
