Nine times out of ten, when a refrigerator stops working, it's a problem 
with the compressor. And if the compressor is bad, you're better off 
buying a new refrigerator rather than get it repaired, because the bulk 
of a refrigerator's price is for the compressor.

A lot of refrigerator repair places will ask some simple troubleshooting 
questions over the phone before sending someone out. They can usually 
tell right away if the compressor is bad. If they determine its bad over 
the phone, you can save them the trip and go shopping for a new one instead.

Cheers!
