Following advice in this forum, it appeared to be the thermostat. I replaced it, and now I hear a click, the compressor runs for three seconds, another click, and it stops. A minute or so later, this repeats. No cooling. I was hoping that replacing the thermostat would be a quick and easy fix, but now I'm worried there might be more wrong with it. I don't want to waste more money doing excessive repairs, but I also don't want to abandon it if it can be saved. Any suggestions?
