" working fine but buzzes constantly."

If you mean that it makes noise even when not opening or closing and it is a HUM then it is a transformer with loose laminations.

If that is the problem the transormer can last for years and still do that. It can be very annonying so I would go ahead and return it or get warantee sercvice.
