Amana thermostat rusted
Add the new one it was slightly different than the original but it worked out perfect.
I removed control knobs and a couple of screws and forced the assembly down enough to remove the old thermostat, and insert the new one. Lucky me it was a identical replacement item. Job took about an hour.

Refrigerator cools ok but freezer does'nt
For model number RTT1900DAM
Hi Harvey, thank you for your question. When you are having temperature problems in your freezer, there are a few parts that could cause the issue. You can use a multi meter to test most of the parts. Make sure you cut power to your appliance before doing any repairs or tests. First you should test your defrost thermostat. Place the thermostat in ice cold water for 2-3 minutes after removing it from your appliance. It should be reading 0 ohms to be working correctly. Another part to check would be your defrost heater. Remove it from the appliance. It should be reading anywhere between 0 - 50 ohms to be working. The other part to check would be your defrost timer as well. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.
