Default Refrigerator/freezer not cooling
Brand: Maytag
Model Number: MZD2752GRW
Age: 1 - 4 years

Please help troubleshoot refrig./freezer not cooling. I rotated the defrost timer manually(no help); I hear a clicking sound underneath momentarilly approx; 2 seconds then cuts off; I think the compressor cuts on during that 2 seconds and I hear soft buzz sound, this cycle occurs every 1-2 minutes over and over. Thank you in advance for ay input. P.S. there was no frost build up in the freezer prior to this issue. Thanks again.

Thanks Mr. Woodchuck, just to cry on somebody's shoulder; this fridge gave saturday nite; had to cancel all superbowl function; we with kids have been living out of coolers and buying lots of ice; very frustrating to say the list; I will look into that link you posted; also this Maytag has a plug in type relay/ovld (solid state); I don't think I can take continuity checks on it; I'll proberly have swap the relay/ovld first then go from there. Again Thank you.
