  • The loud click at 8 sec is probably the overload protection tripping as the compressor motor has been drawing current but not running.

    It's possible that the compressor is actually seized.

    The starting relay lives under the cover on the left side of the compressor. It could be one unit combined with the overload.
    Remove cover, unplug wires, pull relay from the 3 pins that connect it to the comp.

  • The compressor is still getting warm (as I assume it should) but the radiator up the back of the fridge not at all. I don't know if this confirms what you say about it being seized does it?
