It seems to be running normal. The fans are running and air is blowing out like normal just not cold. I turned the defrost timer to defrost mode and the fridge did turn off. I then waited a few minutes and touched the defrost heater and it never got hot. It appears to be in good shape. I did also do an OHM test and it checked out fine. Could it be the bimetl-def? Please help.... Jason

However, every minute or so there are a couple of clicks coming from the white box (i think) mounted to the side of the compressor. Thanks for the reply.
