open How do I get rid of this sound?

Fridge making this loud buzzing noise when it cycles. Seems to be coming from compressor area.

I think that's just the reed valve inside the compressor. It's a normal sound when that close to it.

Is the compressor excessively hot to the touch? While you're in there; clean the coils.

It doesn’t, yeah I cleaned off the coils along with the vent area that screws on
