Uh, we had a fire and the department had to be called.

definitely. As someone said, it might
not be the
compressor. I had Kitchen Aid
Authorized Service come to my house and tell
me that "because this compressor/etc. it
5 years old, it will cost me $1500 to
replace
it." No diagnostic .... Didn't even look
at it that closely. BTW, the fridge is now
working with NO REPAIR. I think it iced
up, for some reason and the ice blocked
airflow completely. I told him about
the water, etc. My guess is that the
timer stuck
or something like that. I would never
trust them again.
