That's not a motor, you are talking about the compressor.
The only motors in a refrigerator / freezer are the evaporator fan motor and the condenser fan motor. Compressors can burn out from lack of freon or oil, overheating, etc. You try replacing the 3N1? |

The windings inside the compressor burn out and it reads open on an ohm meter. The overload could of clicked open and then reset itself.
