My Roper refrigerator clicks every few minutes and is getting warm. What does that mean?

Repeated clicking at the back usually means the compressor is trying to start and the overload is cutting it off. A failed start device is common and inexpensive, but the compressor itself can also be at fault. We test both before recommending a repair.

Can you fix the refrigerator in my Wilmore rental before the tenant loses food?

We often have same-day appointments when the schedule allows, and many common top-freezer repairs can be finished on the first visit. Tell the tenant to keep the doors closed in the meantime. We will call you with the diagnosis and price before any work starts.

My apartment fridge off Tyvola Road clicks and won't cool. What is happening?

A repeated click every few minutes usually means the compressor is trying to start and failing, often because of a bad start relay or overload. That part is inexpensive compared with the compressor itself. If you rent, ask your landlord or maintenance office to book the visit.

Roper Refrigerators: What We Check First

A Roper refrigerator is almost always a top-freezer built on Whirlpool's basic platform. Cold air is made at an evaporator coil hidden behind the freezer's back wall, and a small fan pushes it through the freezer and down a duct into the fresh-food side, where an air control regulates how much gets through. A condenser coil under the cabinet sheds heat with help from a fan near the compressor. Defrost runs automatically through a heater and a bimetal thermostat clipped to the coil.

Defrost heater or bimetal thermostat failure icing the evaporator
Compressor start device clicking but not starting the compressor
Condenser fan stalled so heat builds under the cabinet
Evaporator fan motor whining or stopped behind the freezer

The full explanation, including what you can safely check yourself and when repair beats replacement, is in our Roper refrigerator repair guide.

Older Top-Freezers and Rental Units on the West Side

Many west-side kitchens still run a plain top-freezer refrigerator that has been in place for years. Its classic failure is a defrost problem: frost thickens on the freezer's back wall, cold air stops reaching the fresh-food side, and milk turns warm while ice cream stays hard. Evaporator fan motors and the compressor start relay are the other usual suspects. None of those means a refrigerant leak, and most are reasonable repairs. Dusty condenser coils make every one of those faults worse during a humid summer, especially in small kitchens where the fridge sits next to the range.

A First Check and How Rental Visits Work

With the fridge unplugged, pull off the toe grille or reach behind the unit and vacuum the coils, then listen after restoring power for the fan inside the freezer. If you rent, tell your landlord before booking, since most leases put this repair on the owner. Landlords can give us the tenant's contact and a gate code for complexes near Billy Graham Parkway, and we call for approval once the diagnosis and price are known.
