My Maytag refrigerator starting making a clicking noise this morning, like an on/off click, approximately every 5-10 seconds. With each click the control panel on the front would also go on/off. The interior refrigerator lights would stay on. Unplugging the unit for a few minutes did not help.

I had to leave for work so I'm not sure if the temperature inside was maintaining.
From what I have read, I think I need to replace the master control board. My other concern is it ok for the refrigerator to be clicking on/off like this until we get replacement part or should I unplug the unit?

Hi,

Yes, you are correct, the main control board is the problem. Its best to unplug your refrigerator from the wall outlet until you install the new main control board.

Here it is for your model:
Electronic Control Board WPW10312695


Let us know how it goes.
