Whirlpool
Model# ED5GHGXMB00
Serial# SR0435302

The unit went warm overnight. Both defrost and condensor fans are running constantly. Cleaned the coils. Condensor clicks on and clicks off in 10 seconds. Please help.

Thanks,

Jeff

Jeff, condensors do not click. Relays click. If there is a clicking noise it is most likely coming from the relay attached to the compressor. If the fans are running it sounds like your compresor is not starting. Replace the relay on the compressor. If it still doesn't start, try a hard to start kit. If it doesn't start after that, it usually means the compressor is bad and you should probably buy a new fridge. Sorry for the bad news. :(
