Solved! Kenmore Refrigerator is not getting cold

If the refrigerator has worked for more than 7 years, it goes into the category of old appliances. By this time, the life of the thermostat, compressor ends. Plastic is aging, structural changes take place, cracks, dullness, yellowing appear. The welded joints between the evaporator and the pipes become more fragile, the door heating circuits in the foamed part corrode under the influence of penetrating moisture. Door seals wear out and become stiff. The compressor gets a lot of piston, rings and gaskets. Whether the listed adversities manifest themselves in a bouquet or the refrigerator will work trouble-free for 15 years or more depends on the operating conditions and the quality of the components. If the old refrigerator works, but it freezes worse, does not cool, diagnostics and revision are necessary. The cost to replace one is between $300 and $550, depending on the cost of the item and labor. If a compressor has a faulty relay switch repairs can cost roughly about $50 to $200. If money is not a problem then this is an easy solution you can choose to save your time and be sure the repair is efficient. More likely, the refrigerator has lost its refrigerant as well. This step is strongly recommended to be implemented by a professional technician. There's no good reason to pay half the cost of a new fridge to resurrect a 10-15 year old fridge. If your Kenmore refrigerator is old enough, consider replacing it with a new one. Nevertheless, the 7-year-old device is able to serve longer. The repair might be covered by the manufacturer's warranty if the appliance is not so old. Then, it makes financial sense to replace a compressor. In Kenmore refrigerators, the compressor is located at the bottom part of the back of the refrigerator. You will need access to the back of the fridge so you might have to pull your refrigerator from the wall or counter. Evacuate the refrigerant out of the system, remove the clips at the bottom side of the compressor and cut the piping. You will have to remove or replace the filter dryer in order to be able to pull off the compressor as well.  Carefully remove the compressor without kicking any of the tubings. Insert the compressor and the filter dryer, make sure that the joints are connecting snuggly before you start blazing. After you are done, double check the joints and make sure everything is tight, and you can start vacuuming.
