''If the compressor is not running'' and if it is cold then there may be a problem with the ''run capacitor - part #410g/h machine parts'' ''diagram'' or perhaps the compressor motor or the control board.
''If the compressor is running and warm or hot'' there may be a problem with the sealed system. Either a blockage, a faulty compressor or a lack of refrigerant. Check for any oily residues on the condenser coils (near the compressor) or below the compressor which may indicate that there is a leak.
Also check if the evaporator unit ''behind the panel inside the freezer compartment'' is icy cold with the compressor running (0 deg. F). Don’t let your fingers get stuck to the coils, use cotton gloves if you go to touch it, just in case.
If it is not icy cold then there is a problem with the sealed system.
Due to the environmental regulations regarding the handling of refrigerant gases, the sealed system will have to be checked by a licenced refrigerator repairer. They can test the pressures in the sealed system to determine what and where the problem is.
