just bought this frig. plugged it in and the compressor comes on for about 20 seconds and then it shuts off. the frig motor keeps going though. and it starts putting out a wierd smell....almost like something inside is burning but i really don't know how to describe it. is the compressor shot? or does it sound worse? if it is the compressor is that something i can fix myself?

You can't fix the compressor yourself but you can check the overload/start relay which could be the problem. Part 55 on this diagram. FRIGIDAIRE | Model #FRS26HF5AB4 | REFRIGERATOR | SYSTEM | SearsPartsDirect.com

See how to check it here. Refrigerator Repair Guide: How To Test the Compressor Relay - ACME HOW TO.com
