While the fridge is in normal operating mode; when I slide the Cold Control from the fresh food compartment to 'off'; everything stops, but when I slide it back to 'on' at around mid level; all the fans came back on except for the compressor. I also hear a 'click' from the start relay about 25-30 seconds later but there's no 'humming' to the compressor and it is still off.

The only way to get the compressor running again is if I:
*leave the Cold Control set to 'on',
*unplug the power cord and then wait for another 'click',
*plug the power cord back in to the ac outlet
After this procedure, then the compressor and everything else would come back to normal again.

Is this normal, and will the compressor start again if I waited longer without unplugging it? I read somewhere that if I turned the fridge 'off' with the cold control, it would manually trigger to 'defrost mode'??? Need help!!!

FYI: 'Overload/Relay Kit' and 'Run Capacitor' was newly installed two weeks ago.
