This fridge is less than 2 years old. Soon after warranty ran out, the fridge began to just shut down. No light, no cooling at all. We found by removing power, plugging back in, it would come back on and work.

That's happened several dozen times. Each time it seems to take more attempts to get it to restart.

Symptoms are, after plugging fridge back in, by putting my ear against the right side of it, I can hear what sounds like a relay kerchunking over and over. Then, another click like sound like it's starting. But after a couple seconds the relay kerchunking starts again.

Now here is the wierd part, if the kerchunking get faster and stops after 5 seconds or so, the other relay click and soon after, the compressor seems to come on and all is well. It happened last night and it took at least 20 attempts to restart the fridge before it came on.

I have gone to the rear of the fridge where there are three circuit boards. I have ordered and replaced the top circuit board, but that did not fix the problem.

I have two more circuit boards back there I can replace, but they are $300+ each and I hate spending bucks like that without someone with knowledge telling me which one of the boards to replace first.
