Fridge was getting warm while the freezer was cold and running constantly.
After testing and eliminating the temperature control and the timer as the problem, I turned to the thermostat. I had to wait for the ice buildup to thaw and then could remove the rear freezer panel (this was the 3rd time: first, to discover the ice buildup causing the problem, second when it came back after a complete thaw and test the thermostat, and this time to put the Partselect thermostat back in). My thermostat was visibly damaged from water melting into ice and expanding the casing and eventually breaking one of the connections. I connected the thermostat connection wires (not recommended) to get by while ordering the part, which shipped faster than local repair places could get it from their warehouses, and at a fraction of the cost. I'm really impressed with partselect's fast service and all the knowledgable customers who have explained how they installed them. I now have an intimate knowledge of how my fridge works and saved hundreds in repair, or twice that in replacement. Thanks!
Parts Select is an excellent source for help and parts identification. I highly recomend them. My first option was to replace the defrost timer. After still getting ice and frost buildup in freezer I decided to replace the defrost thermostat. Remove all shelves. Losen icemaker if applicable. Remove light cover and bulb. Remove all screws securing rear vertical cover. Carefully move back panel, disconnect icemaker and bulb assembly. carefully remove styrofoam cover at upper left and remove defrost thermostat. I tested the thermostat and found it was defective. It would not close circuit after being placed in a working freezer. Reverse procedure to replace thermostat. This solved the problem
All I had to do was change out motors, and the fam would spin right,and the freezer was alive again. With your older models you may have to re-mount the motor bracket in the back for the fan to clear,due to the fact that the motor sits alittle lower than the old model
freezer would not freeze longer than one day. after ten years without problem
pulled out freezer, went to floor,reached in next to compressor pulled off clip just like on the video.Pulled off old capacitator took off wire leads.Installed new one. Freezer runs great.Loaded it up with beef pork and venison. No problems.
Heater not coming on - coil frosting up- freezer and Refrig. warm
The instructions given to me by part Select were very good.I replaced the Timer- checked the heater with oham meter it was good- checked the door weather striping it was good and replaced the thermostat with new .So at this point I may need to call a professional unless some one has another solution.
The rail holding up the deli drawer has clips (not screws) which attach to the upper shelf. My husband accused my of overloading the bin because the drawer kept falling down. He thought by tightening the screws, the problem was solved..No! Instead, when he went home for a few days (this is a vacation home) the rail cracked. I went on line AND called to make sure the replacement part was correct. I spoke to the nicest most helpful and patient man, ordered the part, received it in three days,screwed the old clips into the new rail and attached the rail to the shelf in 5 minutes. I would have paid double the price (it was so reasonable) just not to hear him moan, carry-on, complain about the HARD WORK and time he has to waste on repairs. I had to show him the packaging and broken rail (with a larger , incorrect sized screw he used!) because he could not believe that I (andsolved this problem...Thank you! you)
We bought our house and the lower glass shelf in our refrigerator was missing. We lived without the shelf for almost two years figuring it would be a pain to look up the part and replace it on an older fridge. Finding the part and ordering it with PartSelect.com only took me all of 5 mins. If I had known it was going to be that easy.. I would have done it two years ago!
first I replaced the timer control hoping thats the problem,unfortunately situation the same ice build up on the freezer.so I replaced the defrost thermostat.right now I'll still observing the condition if still the same.may be in couple days.so far its good.and to replace the parts is not difficult and easy.
Fan Motor was making noise and freezing up.Fan was missing one blade.
Removed screws that fastened bracket to fridge. Next, I replaced the motor and carefully lined the brackets up so the motor would rotate smoothly. Put the fan blade on the motor and screwed the brackets back on the fridge. Motor kept popping out of alignment while I was screwing the brackets back in but I kept snapping it back in till it stayed.
Unplugged the frig. Removed temp control module from frig, 1 screw with nut driver. Activated defrost timer by rotating adjustment until 2 clicks are heard. Removed two timer mounting screws, unpluged timer, plugged in the new timer, mounted it to the control module with 2 mounting screws. Replaced control module with the 1 mounting screw. Closed door and plugged it up.
at first auto defrost would not work so I had to take the frezer panel apart and defrost it with a hair dryer every ten days
pulled down the thermostat cover and unpluged the timer control and replaced it with the new part. total time to repair was about 15 min. there was a vidio on how to replace the new part that just informed me that I did it right!!!!very easy site to find what you are looking for!!!!
I order defrost timer then replaced it but it seemed doesn't work. I order defrost thermostat again then it worked fine until now. Thanks. Part selects.
