Kenmore coldspot fridge electrical short?

Question

Hello,

I have a side by side fridge. The compressor kicks on when the cooling controls are turned up but the circulation fan does not turn on. If you turn the cooling controls to the off position the fan turns on but the compressor turnes off. The lights do not turn on as well.

Thanks in advance,

Josh

I believe the compressor comes on to control the temp in the freezer section.  The fan blows  enough from the freezer to the frig part.

The compressor will also not come on if you continue to turn it on and off.

Shut the breaker off wait 5min.  turn the breaker on and set the temp.

if it doesn't hold temp and the lights still don't work and you new bulbs call the repair man.
