Tom March 16, 2011 for Model Number BRD18V1S I have an Amana refrigerator with a bottom freezer and it is no cooling. There is a loud humming when the compressor wants to start. The hum goes on for approximately 5-10 seconds and then clicks off. Thinking it was the overload relay, I replaced it. I did not replace the capacitor that is attached to the relay. Should that have been replaced as well? Or is the compressor gone. Thanks for the help.
