Strange as this might sound.....my husband and I woke up this morningto
what we thought was the tornado siren. Turns out it was our refrigerator!
Any thoughts on this one?

I am guessing that what you heard was the fan blades scraping against
something. Fan motor bearings failed?

If you open it and Zuul, the Gatekeeper of Gozer, is inside, you know who
to call...

Don't be a Usenet snob. This is 2012, and we'll eventually have to
accept a wide variety of posting methods. Including, eventually, via
SMS. Which will really suck.

I'd check the fan bearing. Should be easy: Unplug the unit. Pull out
all the interior panels in the freezer section until you see the fan.
Plug the unit back in.

I had to replace the evaporator coil fan on my ancient Sears Coldspot a few
years ago after the bearings started getting noisy. They never would have a
problem in the daytime (it seemed), but instead they would act up in the
middle of the night when I would be trying to sleep.

Damn thing drove me crazy until I replace it with an ebay-purchased unit. I
did try lubricating the bearings a few times, but eventually not even that
helped.

Someone put the Ajax in the 'fridge?

Shhh... don't tell him. I put it there last week. I got it from the Civil
Defense auction in Chicago, after they found all that stuff. Wait till he
finds the Civil Defense crackers in the salad crisper drawer.
