Gene has much to be proud of
Default
Remove the rear cover. Remove the start device (#18 on the unit break down diagram) from the compressor and shake it. If it makes a rattling noise - replace the start device.

Possible the compressor itself is bad and has to be replaced. In that case it has to be done by a certified tech and maybe it's better to buy a new fridge due to high cost of repair.

- The part number for the start device is AP3696670

Here are the break down diagrams for the Whirlpool refrigerator Model ED2FTGXKQ03
