KENMORE WHIRLPOOL MODEL 106 8609982 IS NOT COOLING. FREEZER SECTION & REFRIGERATOR SECTION. COMPRESSOR IS RUNNING, CONDENSER FAN IS RUNNING. EVAPORATOR FAN IS RUNNING. THERE IS NO DUST ON COILS. TOOK BACK OFF OF THE FREEZER SECTION. AFTER AN HOUR EVAPORATOR COILS DO NOT HAVE ANY FROST ON THEM. IS THERE NO FREON OR I READ THAT IT COULD BE A CLOGGED SYSTEM ??? HOW DO YOU FIX A CLOGGED SYSTEM. OR IS IT A BAD THERMOSTAT PROBLEM
For model number 1068609982

Hi Jan, thank you for the question. According to our research on the model, we would suggest checking the door seals as they may not seal properly if they are dirty, damaged, or worn which can cause your refrigerator to leak cool air. If they are good then the Temperature Control Thermostat appears to be faulty and you may need to replace it with part number PS396329. We hope this helps, let us know if you have further questions!

Unit very noisy and freezer too warm
First I removed the racks in the freezer. The rack supports on the sides lift off without tools. The evaporator cover is at the back of the freezer. 4 phillips head screws. The cover lifts up then forward to expose the evaporator, evaporator fan and duct. The duct is held by 3 hex head screws. The evaporator fan is attached to the duct with a wiring pigtail to a plug. Unplug the fan and remove the duct. The fan is held by 2 hexhead screws. The new fan is put in place and assembly is simply the reverse of disassembly. The unit is quiet and cools properly now. The new part fit perfectly.
