Hello, I have a problem with my Kenmore Coldspot, the fan is running and the compressor is pretty darn hot, and neither the refrigerator compartment nor the freezer is cold at all. There is a constant clicking noise. I did vacuum out and blow out the ref. coils underneath and it did help long enuff to get a thin crust of ice in the ice tray but then it went back to un-happy mode....question I'm posing is do I need the relay switch (2-prong) or the starting device and which part numbers would I need to order. Please help...thank you....

I'm guessing it's a 2 piece?

Yes, the start device for your fridg is AP3885081, you select one per the instructions supplied. You can test your old one, just stick a meter in the lower two pins of the old start device that plugs into the compressor, if 5 to 10 ohms, your old start device is ok.
If so, you probably have a bad compressor.
