Kenmore Elite SxS freezer/refrigerator is not cooling Model#:105.50593003?

This morning woke up with freezer not cooling. Food Defrosted. The fan is running ok. But when the compressor is supposed to come it just clicks. Noticed compressor is very warm. Any ideas? or things to try? Service is 3-4days out.

I believe the model is 106.xxxxx. If this were my fridge, I would first unplug it, then I would take the panel off the back and once I found out where the compresser is I would check for a relay and overload which should be plugged right into the compressor with wires attached and check them both for continuity after both were detached. You will probably find the relay is open causing the compressor to click on the overload. Also make sure your condenser coils are clean.
