Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
Close call.
Sure is peculiar to wake up and see your refrigerator on fire. Wakes you up a hell of a lot faster than coffee.
The culprit: compressor relay switch. Damn.
It was an interesting morning.
Wow, it's a good thing you happened to be home! Total loss or can you replace the burnt parts?

I've seen lots of those burn up. I replace them all the time on the commercial coolers. Never seen them catch fire though. Was it just smoldering and making a lot of smoke or did it actually lite on fire?
Also make sure your start capacitor didn't blow. When those the relays stick closed the start capacitors will over heat and blow out a small hole on the top and it makes a TON of smoke.
Sorry to hear that man. You should give us makes and models and such so we can be on the look out as well.
SShhh,, it just another thing to make mife wifes anxiety go rampant.
Yeah a good thing you were there.
