When the refrigearator motor shuts down it makes a loud terrible racket and shakes. What might be the problem?? Perhaps bearings in the motor are bad.
Don't know for sure.

I am not sure what motor you are referring to.
If you mean the compressor then yes it is on it's last legs.
I would check it's rubber mount just to be sure they are OK.
It may last a couple days, it may last a year or more but it is no longer reliable.
To replace it will be an expensive repair as you need a pro.
Internal parts of a compressor are not replaceable.
Usually it makes more sense to put the dollars towards a new unit. |
