What to Check If Your Fridge Freezer Compressor is not Running

If your fridge freezer’s compressor isn’t running, here are some things you can check to

troubleshoot the issue before contacting a technician:

Step 1: Check the Power Connection

First, make sure your fridge is properly connected to a working power outlet. If the

fridge is not receiving power, the compressor will not run.

Step 2: Wait After Power Disruption

If there has been a power failure or if you recently unplugged and reconnected the

fridge
, note that it can take up to 6 minutes for the cooling system to restart. This delay

is normal, so give the compressor time to kick back in.

Step 3: Check for Defrosting Mode

If your fridge is a No-Frost model, it periodically defrosts to prevent ice build-up. During

defrosting, the compressor may temporarily stop. This is normal and helps the fridge

maintain optimal cooling performance.

Step 4: Adjust the Temperature Settings

The selected temperature may not be suitable for proper cooling. If your fridge freezer

isn’t cold enough, try setting a colder temperature to activate the compressor and

improve cooling.

By following these steps, you can determine whether the compressor issue is due to a

simple fix or if it requires professional assistance.
