Few weeks ago, my 2 year old fridge started making strange revving noises. Freezing still works Ok, but the noise is troubling. It’s not possible to describe the noise with words, but a recording might help: Youtube clip This noise seems to be coming from behind the bottom of upper compartment, above the freezer.
It sounds like you have a GE Profile refrigerator with the CustomCool control set for “thawing”. This is a normal operating noise while thawing. You can turn off the “thaw” setting and the noise should stop. Don’t forget to check on the item your thawing and set the control for more thaw time if needed. A model number would be a great help!
Hi @megs80 , If it is only a couple of months old from new, get it checked out under the manufacturer’s warranty. Look for the warranty statement in the user manual or if it came as a separate document with the fridge, to see what to do to make a claim for a warranty repair. Don’t open up / remove anything that is not opened or removed when using the fridge during normal use, as this will void the warranty. What are the temperatures like in the freezer and the refrigerator? Are they both OK?
i am just mechanically inclined and mine is revving right now-it drives me insane because i have misophonia (triggered by certain sounds) i pulled it out-took off the back piece at the bottom and used dust off spray to clean the fan (had dust on it) and cleaned all back there-it stopped revving
