Why is it noisy in back of the freezer?

WARNING!

To avoid personal injury or death, disconnect your appliance from its power source before you start any troubleshooting or repair work. Use caution when working inside any appliance.

Refrigerator Compressor

There are two major moving parts in back of the freezer. One source of noise is the compressor. If the compressor is too loud, you will need to contact a professional appliance repair person. Another source of noise is the condenser fan motor and blade. Check for dirt or dust build-up on the blade and fan motor. If this area is dirty, clean it up with the power off. Also, if the fan blade is metal, make sure that it is not hitting anything and that it is attached securely to the motor. If the noise is still coming from the motor, you will need to replace it.
