The side-by-side quit cooling. I removed the evap fan, which will not run when I hear the compressor run, and it checked good. Only 35 volts to the leads. The compressor fan is working fine and the compressor sounds like it is cycling on/off rapidly. I removed the overload and relay &they seem good. Compressor windings test good. I have no idea how to test the relay board. I did the 4 quick door light on/off to reset the defroster and it seemed to work properly. The compressor kicked on, but no cooling. Is voltage to the evap fan controlled thru the board? Does the board also control the compressor time? THANKS, I am on the last straw.

Hi.

When you open the evaporator cover and the fan was not running do you recall if the evaporator was frosted?
If it was - bypass the defrost thermostat and see if the fan will start. If it will you may have the bad thermostat or not cold enough freezer.

Post the results.

Simon.
