Why your refrigerator is compressor failure

Compressor failure on a refrigerator usually announces itself like this: compressor clicks on then stops, or won't start. Often refrigerant or start relay related. More often than not it traces back to refrigerant charge loss. Left unaddressed, food or stock can spoil within hours.

Most likely causes

  • An overheated overload protector
  • Failed start relay or capacitor
  • An electrical short in the windings
  • A contaminated sealed system

Quick check — and when it's not DIY

There's one thing worth checking before you book anyone: listen for a hum with no start, or a repeated clicking sound, and confirm the unit is actually getting power. Also, check the breaker hasn't tripped and the unit's overload protector hasn't kicked out, since both can look like a dead compressor. Once you've ruled that out, 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.

How we fix it

An experienced tech tests the refrigerator systematically and pinpoints what's actually causing the compressor failure. Genuine OEM parts for all major refrigerator brands ride on the truck, so the fix usually happens the same day. You approve a flat price up front, and the work is backed by our labour and parts warranty.

The refrigerator died mid-week and they had it sorted before I'd even rearranged my schedule. Clean, on-time, and they took the old part with them. Would call again.

Our refrigerator quit on us and they had a technician out the same afternoon in Fruit Cove. No runaround — they told me honestly what it needed and fixed just that.

Called about our refrigerator in the morning and it was running again by evening. Flat price agreed up front, and they stood behind the labour warranty.
