The start relay has burned out or voltage in the area is too low for the compressor to turn over.
Refrigerant gas has slowly leaked out from an aged copper joint or punctured aluminum cooling plate.
Mechanical thermostat contacts are fused closed, making the compressor run 24 hours a day.
Aged rubber door gasket allows humid outside air to seep inside, causing heavy frost buildup.

Fridge cool aagala? In frost-free refrigerators, this classic symptom indicates that the defrost timer, bi-metal thermostat, or defrost heater has failed, blocking cold airflow to the lower compartment. Our Chennai technician inspects and replaces the faulty defrost part on-site.
Yes, we service single door direct cool, double door frost-free, and high-capacity side-by-side inverter refrigerators across all Chennai neighborhoods.
When the magnetic door seal wears out or becomes stiff from Chennai's humidity, cold air escapes and moisture beads form. Our technician realigns or replaces the magnetic door gasket.
This happens when the internal defrost drain tube gets choked with food debris or ice. Meltwater overflows into the lower crisping compartment instead of running to the rear evaporation pan. We clear the drain line cleanly.
Indicative pricing in Chennai: a PTC starter relay and overload protector costs roughly ₹450 to ₹950, while a mechanical thermostat replacement ranges from ₹650 to ₹1,250 depending on the model.
A repeating click sound indicates that the compressor is trying to start but the PTC relay has failed or line voltage is fluctuating. The overload protector cuts off power to save the compressor. Replacing the relay fixes this immediately.
