Fans are working, door switches are working. Compressor has good continuity, resistance values are 5, 7 and 11 ohms. I’ve replaced the PTCR relay and overload. Run capacitor measures 12 uf. When I plug into wall, the compressor tries to start and immediately shuts off. I hear a clicking on the mother board; both, when powering on and again after unplugging. Is there a way I can test the mother board before purchasing a new one or does the clicking indicate a bad component on the board?
This model has a single digit temp. control for freezer and fridge – each has “colder”, “warmer” buttons. I don’t know how to get into diagnostics mode; but, would this tell me what is wrong?

Kurt, you most likely have defective starting components on the compressor. You could also have a tied up compressor. I would try starting components first. See video link below. Call our parts department at 1-800-830-5465 they can drop ship and are open 7-days a week. Matt Ace technician

Are you getting a constant clicking from the mother board when unit is plugged in? If so you have a bad mother board.
