Introduzione
Use this guide to test the compressor motor and its attached overload device for your LG Model LFX25973 refrigerator.
The compressor is the heart of your refrigerator, and if it fails or can't start, your refrigerator is useless. Without the compressor, the refrigerant can't circulate and can't function to cool the interior of the fridge.
Symptoms of such failure include no compressor sound from the fridge and increasing temperature inside the fridge. Sometimes, there may be repeated clicking noises coming from the lower part of the fridge.
