With the door closed, the fridge is still noisy, so I'm assuming it must be a fan connected to the fridge operation because it only shuts off when I open the fridge door. Is it a fairly easy DIY replacement, or would I need an engineer to fix it? Thanks, Les Greenwood

On some models the fan stops when the doors are opened. Fan can be worn out or it could hitting something. It's not hard to replace. Look for a complete model number for part location.
