Gurgling Noise in the Refrigerator
Cooling Cycle
- A gurgling sound may be heard as the refrigerator shuts off after a cooling cycle, as the refrigerant flows through the cooling system's tubes.
- When the doors are open and/or closed, a gurgling sound may also be heard. This is part of the cooling cycle.
- Both are part of normal operation.
Opening the Doors
- A gurgling sound may be heard when opening and closing the doors, as water equalizes in the drain tube as air is forced through it.
- This is part of normal operation.
- This is more common during a time of high humidity.
