I have a Kenmore refrigerator (no freezer) that is not cooling. A little over 5 years old, I bought new. - both fans are working - the compressor is running, or at least I think it is, because it is getting hot. Although i can't hear the compressor clicking on, I don't really know what it should sound like. - ohms between the three posts on the compesser vary between 7 and 13. - I replaced the start relay thinking that might be the problem, it wasn't. - fridge is fairly clean no obvious problems. - it doesn't have a freezer so ice build up isnt the problem
If the compressor motor is hot does that mean it is working? Any ideas before I call the pros?
Thanks for any help.
Jason

Hi Jason,
You should feel a vibration when you touch the compressor.
What is the complete model number of the refrigerator?
Gene.
