We turned off fridge and freezer on control panel to clean. Now it does not cool and the compressor seems very hot. Light and fan are on. Any ideas? Thanks!

It is about 6 years old. It is a little dusty but there no blockage. It was working great until I shut the darn thing off.

When did you turn it back on?
Listen for a click by the compressor. Touch the little copper pipes coming from the compressor one should be hot and the other cold.
