The freeze is cold but the refrigerator is warm. Evaporator fan blows for a short time and then goes off.
For model number WRB322DMBW00
Hello Frank, thank you for your question. If the motor is turning on but not running long enough there could be an isuse with the sensor or the main board. We would recommend testing the thermistor, Thermistor Part Number: 12002355, first. As this is the sensor for the temp in the fridge and sends the information on the inner temp to the board to turn on or off the evaporator motor. If the sensor is fine, the main control board could be the issue. I hope this helps.

Both refrigerator and freezer sections are warm (approx. 48>50 degrees) condenser fan is working and compressor runs as well. Have yet to check evaporations fan. Condenser is clean. There is air flow but the air temp is 48>50. Evaporations fan or thermostat?
For model number MBF1956HEW
Hello Mike, Thank you for the question. If the Fan at the back of the freezer is running then it is fine. You can test the Defrost Thermostat. The best way to do this is to remove the thermostat from the refrigerator so you can control the temperature of the sensor. You can let the sensor warm up to room temperature. With the sensor warmed up to room temperature the sensor should read approximately 6.2K Ohms at 68°F. With the thermistor submerged is a glass full of ice water, the sensor should be very close to 32°F which should read approximately 16.3K Ohms. If the values that you are getting are far off from these readings, then the sensor is bad and should be replaced. You can also Test the Thermister. At 70 degrees the resistance should be 9.3K ohms, 90 degrees would be 7.7K ohms. at 100 degrees would be 6.2K ohms, and 120 degrees would be 4.3K ohms. If the thermistor reads outside of range then it needs replaced. We hope this helps.
Hi i have Whirlpool freezer is in bottom and fridge is on top and fridge is too warm and freezer is cold but can is not circulating air, and there is ice on thermostat also. Is the fan have problem or anyother problem. Thanks
For model number Whirlpool Eb9fvbrws04
Hello Ahmad, thank you for your question. It sounds like the issue is with the fan motor. If the air isn't circulation and the motor is not turning the motor should be replaced. I hope this helps!

Hi there
My Whirlpool refrigerator fridge section is warm but freezer is fine. I changed the thermistor in the fridge section and the problem still exist. A small amount of air is coming from the top intermittently but not enough to cool the fridge area. Can you please help. thanks
For model number GX5FHDXVY00
Hello Stephan, Thank you for the question. I suggest checking the Evaporator fan Motor to make sure it is running normally and circulating the air to the Fresh Food Section. Also check the Damper Control Assembly PartSelect Number PS11750106. Make sure it is opening and closing and allowing cold air through into the Fresh Food Section as well. Hope this helps!
My fridge and freezer are too warm, i replaced the capacitor and the relay and it was working fine for 2 weeks but now the freezer works fine for couples days than everything melts, can it be the evapotor motor??? but i feel air floating
For model number Lsd2615heb
Hello Wilmer, thank you for your question. It sounds like the issue is with the control board itself. I would recommend testing the PartSelect Number: PS11743599 defrost thermostat as well as the heater PartSelect Number: PS11743581 just to be safe, but if the unit isn't cooling at all (fridge or freezer) and the compressor parts were replaced the board would most likely be the issue. I hope this helps!

My condenser keeps freezing up ? The door seals look good but every month it freezes up ? Would the fan have anything to do with this issue ?
For model number ABB1924DEW
Hello Paul, thank you for your inquiry. The door gaskets would be the first parts to check over, if they are allowing warm air into the unit this can cause the coils to freeze over. The other parts that may be causing this symptom are the defrost heater, electronic control board, defrost thermostat, or the thermistor. You will have to test these parts with a multi-meter to determine which part has become faulty. We hope this helps.
Refrigerator and freezer getting warm, evaporator fan not working did a continuity test and it shows good what would be my next step?
For model number ASD2626HES
Hello Roland, Thank you for the question. The Fan is controlled by the Electronic Control Board, PartSelect Number PS11755733. This issue could be caused by a defective Board. We hope this helps!
Fridge is fine, freezer running about the same temp as the fridge. I vacuumed off the coils so I am thinking next step is the evaporative fan motor? Thanks.
For model number WRB329DMBM00
Hi Patti, thank you for your question. We have researched the model and would recommend checking the evaporator fan motor, part number PS11748697. The evaporator fan motor circulates air drawn from the freezer coils over the evaporator and throughout the freezer. If the evaporator fan motor is faulty, the freezer section might not perform proper cooling. Checking the evaporator motor for continuity using a multimeter might help. Good luck with the repair!

My fridge part is not getting cold but my freezer is working. I can hear the fan running but i can not feel it blowing cool air. I have been told it could be the fan or the thermostat. These parts are confusing. What could it be?
For model number GB2SHDXTQ00
Hello Crystal, thank you for inquiring. You will want to consider either the Damper Control part number PS11743564 or the Condenser Fan Motor part number PS11750853 for your model. I hope this helps and good luck with your repair!

No cold air blowing in the top (fridge). The freezer on the bottom is fine and has cold air blowing in at the rear grill. Replaced the control board and thermistor. How does the cold air flow to the top fridge part.

Thought motor was bad freezer cold fridge hot
Ordered new fan motor Got part took fridge apart Result was the motor was running The fan blade had come off the motor Replaced the motor anyway and reinstalled the fan, working well
Freezer would get cold at bottom and some of the refrigerator. Took of freezer back panel and located freezer fan. Took a meter and saw power was getting to it, but not working. Removed fan and replaced with new on, working like a charm. Cold air was not circulating enough throughout the unit because fan was not working. It was not the thermostat or adapter control.

Refrigerator wouldn't cool
First I removed the six screws from the cover. I then disconnected the two wires and pulled the small motor out with its base and removed two screws that hold it in place. I then changed the old one for the new one and set it back in its place. I then set the cover back and turned it on. I was happy again.

The evap motor failed (no air movement inside of refrierater
Removed screws from cover tested for power to motor found power was on to motor but motor did not work. I went to your web site was able to locate part in about 5 minutes . Even with over night shipping the part came to about $50,00, far cheaper tha a service call would have been.

I ordered the wrong motor
The part is the wrong one. It was not your fault, I ordered the wrong item. After I opened up the inside of the freezer and seen the evapor fan running realized that was not the problem. It is the motor at the top that lets cold air into the top refrigerator. Their is a little flapper valve in the back with a piston the opens the spring loaded valve to let cold air in.
