How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the refrigerator before accessing the compressor area.

Step-by-step:

  • Listen for clicks: Plug in briefly and listen at the back. Repeated clicking every few minutes suggests a start relay or compressor issue. Then unplug again.
  • Access compressor: Remove the rear lower cover. Locate the small start device attached to the compressor terminals.
  • Inspect start device: Look for burn marks or rattling pieces inside when gently shaken (with power disconnected).
  • Replace start relay/PTC: If damaged, replace with the correct Beko-compatible start device. Ensure tight fit on compressor pins.

Note: If a new start device does not restore operation, the compressor or control board may be faulty and should be checked by a technician.
