Well, here's a little update.

After 36 hours of sitting without power, the fridge would not start,
the compressor motor buzzes and shuts off in 20 seconds or so.

So, presumptively, the compressor is seized. I want to know how much
would it cost to replace it, by a fridge repair professional of
course.

Thanks

If you do decide to toss it (as you will undoubtedly be advised by
many in this group), first salvage some of the good stuff like the new
parts you put in and, most importantly, the magnets in the door
gaskets. Just slice 'em out with a razor blade. They're incredibly
handy.


There is nothing useful in this fridge, even the shelves are glass
instead of wire.
