Why your Silver King walk-in cooler is compressor failure
On a Silver King walk-in cooler, compressor failure usually announces itself like this: compressor clicks on then stops, or won't start. Often refrigerant or start relay related. The usual culprit is a seized compressor. Left unaddressed, food or stock can spoil within hours.
Most likely causes

Quick check — and when it's not DIY
The one self-check that's actually worth your time: listen for a hum with no start, or a repeated clicking sound, and confirm the unit is actually getting power. If that doesn't fix it, a failing compressor is a sealed, high-pressure, refrigerant-charged part, and replacing one requires an experienced technician and recovery equipment no homeowner has on hand.
