This is most likely your compressor going out. Call Amana. They will direct

Take advantage of your warranty. New refrigerators no longer have a 5 year
warranty on their compressor, or anything else. One year is it. They don't
build refrigerators like they used to, anymore, even upscale models.

Nonsense. The Kitchenaid fridge I bought last year has a 5 year
parts and labor warranty on the refrigeration system and the cabinet
itself. It has a 10 year warranty on parts for the refrigeration
system. And I think you can find plenty more manufacturers with
similar warranties.

Amana refrig only 4 yrs old and the compressor is slowly dying. *The
overload/relay is buzzing every 10 min and the temp is slowly rising
inside. *I replaced the overload/relay and this didn't help matters at
all. *It's still under warranty for the compressor.

I called one very good repair company here in Seattle and he said he
didn't do any warranty work. *He recommended buying a new refrig. *I
hesistate to call Sears or A&E Factory Service based on the reviews
I've read online. *I have a call into the place I bought it from but I
doubt they can do much.

Opinions? *The ice cream is melting! *Any good repair service here in
the South End of King County?
