Yesterday afternoon, refrig started making buzzing sound. Took rear panel off cleaned off some dust. Compressor warm and vibrating to touch and evap fan working. Checked refer temp--40 degrees, freezer 10 degrees. Buzzing stopped in the evening. Can't seem to get temps of either side down any lower at higher settings either.

This AM when I got up, the buzzing could be heard again--rather loud with the back off, (sounds like a washing machine buzzer when the load is complete). Buzzer comes on every 2 minutes and lasts for 8 seconds. Build date of refer 4-03, purchased 6-03.

Can use your experience and wisdom Jake. Agree too that Frigidaire is JUNK! Exterior sheet metal, design, now this. Last one a GE lasted 23 years NO problems.

Thanx!
Dave

Hi Dave,

Yes, I ran into this issue many times on the Frigidaire models that made that buzzing sound.

Its likely the compressor thats starting to go out.

Thanks Jake--I think. HaHa!! A lesson learned about Frigidaire and almost every American made product any more. Pure Junk!

Well, I wouldn't say almost every American product made is Junk, just some of the compressors on the Frigidaire were failing more than other brands.
