Unit has shut down, Lights work fan and comp dont. Relay on motherbaord is clicking. Unit was fine yesterday, last time I know it worked I had gotten ice from door, door was slightly ajar and had to push (Lightly 7-10 lbs pressure) unit then worked and has not since. Is there anything i can do to verify if the problem is in the door or motherboard?

It is possible the evaporator thermistor opened from thermal stress. If so, the unit would hang up in defrost. Most appliance repair places would have one. Thermistor should be around 16.8 kohm at 32 degrees (ice water).
