John for Model Number GD5SHALXB02 whirlpool fridge The fridge/freezer are not cooling. Compressor is not turning on. Tapped on start device on compressor and sparks came out and compressor came on and then shut back off. Took start device apart and found inside burnt up. Replaced start device and and compressor came on for a minute of two and shut back off. When I touch the start device the bottom of it is very warm to the touch. What else can I check?
