Summit Refrigerator - Rattling Sound
 

I have a Summit "No Frost" refrigerator which has recently started to rattle. When I pulled it out to look behind it, there was a large black softball-looking piece of equipment that seemed to be making the rattling sound. Any idea if this is replaceable? Or should I ask the building management to purchase a new refrigerator? The rattling sound has become unbearable at times.

I posted an issue over a week ago and didn't get a response so I took some pictures. I pulled out the refridgerator and found what's rattling in the back. I tried my best to take a picture of it. As you can see from the attached pictures, there's a small metal box attached to the back of the fridge. The metal box has several wires that feed into it. After putting my hand on the metal box, I can feel that something inside of it is rattling.

Does anyone know if this item is replaceable? Or the cause of what's rattling inside of the metal box?

that is the compressor, it can be replaced, but i would consider the age or the frig before sticking money into it.

if your talking about the grey metal box, that is where the defrost timer is mounted. Very easy repair

@ Milwaukeetool: Originally I thought it was the compressor, but when I put my hand on the metal box I felt the rattling.

@hardwareman: thanks for identifying the source.

I read this "there was a large black softball-looking piece of equipment that seemed to be making the rattling sound." and figured he was seeing the top of the compressor. Sorry for any wrong info.
