I have this GE side by side refrig. It was leaking water out of the front, in front of the freezer side. Checked the door it was closed, on this inside it was defrosted and the food was defrosting. The fan in the back is running and the fan in the back next to the compressor is running. I can hear a "clicking " noise coming from the mother board when I hold the door swith in the close position and turn the freezer control knob from 0 to 1. Both of the fans come on, however the compressor doesn't engage and run. I was hoping for some advice on what to trouble shoot and to maybe find a online manual for this, anything would be great, thanks.

Remove the motherboard cover in the back of fridg and locate the 3 pin power connector. Notice whic pins are labled, Line and Comp. Put a jumper between thes mating pins on the connector. Plug in fridg. compressor should run, if so, replace the motherboard. AP4436216
