Why your refrigerator is compressor failure

Here's how compressor failure typically presents on a refrigerator: compressor clicks on then stops, or won't start. Often refrigerant or start relay related. Across the brands we service, it's most often a contaminated sealed system. Left unaddressed, food or stock can spoil within hours.

Most likely causes

  • A seized compressor
  • A contaminated sealed system
  • An electrical short in the windings

Quick check — and when it's not DIY

Before you call anyone, check the breaker hasn't tripped and the unit's overload protector hasn't kicked out, since both can look like a dead compressor. Also, listen for a hum with no start, or a repeated clicking sound, and confirm the unit is actually getting power. Past that point, 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

First we diagnose the refrigerator end to end, so you're not paying to swap parts on a guess. We carry common refrigerator parts for every major brand, so most repairs are done in one visit. 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. Genuine parts, done in one trip, and the invoice matched the quote.
