ok it's not been a good day.  first the basement flooded, then I went to lowes to get a dehumidifier and the back of the car had a couple of inches of water in it.  then on the way to the gym the commander ALSO had an 1" of water on the floor board.

I was down stairs continueing to clean up and went to get a popcycle.  opened the chest freezer and the stuffon the top was dethawed!!!!  oh yea we just put over $400 of meat in there this weekend!!!

I took the side panel off and the compressor was burning hot to the touch!  I unplugged it.  while it was cooling we were desperatly trying to get all the meat to neighbor's freezers.

so it t normal for the compressor to get that hot?  how do i get it working again?  whenit cools down will it start again?

anyone repair GE freezer?

Jeep, I have a 5 cuft chest freezer sitting empty in the basement if you need some holding room until you can get things squared away.
