Here's how it played out.

1) Grancey researched on the internet about "moving refrigerators" and she discovered that very often the refrigerant oil will travel away from its "home" during the moving process and the compressor might overheat if you plug it in right away. Therefore, you should just let it sit for several hours before plugging it in to allow the refrigerant oil to drip back down into place. We did that, allowing it to sit overnight.

2) In the meantime we bought one of those little dorm fridges at Wal-Mart to put our stuff in until we can figure out if the problem fixes itself.

3) I plugged the fridge in this morning when I woke up and VOILA it kicked on and has been running perfectly all day. I'll take the dorm fridge to work this week and set it up there.


You guys really suck at handy-man advice, you know that?
