GE GSH22JTFA side by side is not cooling in freezer/fridge. Fridge sat for several months before a power on and when set to #5 setting for both it just blows out room temp air even after a day running. Everything looks clean in back and all fans are blowing as well. What might be happening?
Thanks!

If the compressor is vibrating and hot, your most probable problem is it leaked refrigerant. Get it re-charged and checked for leaks.

Thanks Richappy for response! The compressor felt warm and very little vibration after running for 2 days. Still just room temp air pushing through the freezer/fridge compartments. The fridge turns on/off just fine. Is there something possibly with the control board or starter relay? Good way to test that?

Seems like the compressor start device failed. Pry it off, if it rattles replace it.
