Problem: Fridge was making loud buzzing noise.
Solution #1: Ignore it, hope it would go away. I invested 5 days into
this solution.
Outcome #1: Did not work.
Solution #2: Bang fridge in various locations. About 5 minutes of
effort.
Outcome #2: Did not work, but removed ice buildup at bottom of
freezer. Also felt vaguely satisfied. Suspect using a large hammer would
have been more satisfying however chances of success seemed lower.
Solution #3: Remove drawers from freezer and discover there’s a very
loud fan. Stick finger in fan.
Outcome #3: Noise stopped even when fan spun back up after I removed
finger. Now sending fridge manufacturer email asking them why they put
the plastic grid in front of the fan as it makes finger insertion harder.
