The lights inside dim slightly on each click as well... Help pls.. Thank you for your time.

If there is proper voltage then replace the relay and overload at the compressor. If it would not help then the compressor itself has gone bad. In that case check the manufacturer warranty - it cab cover the compressor for up to 5 years. - The relay/overload Part number: AP3796033 Here are the breakdown diagrams and Replacement parts for GE SDL20KCSBBS \| AppliancePartsPros.com Gene.

No, it has nothing to do with the defrost system. Quote: ...if so... where is it?... There is no a such part in your refrigerator. The defrost cycle is operated by the main control board. Gene.
