Top 20 Haier ESR042PBB 4.2 Cu. Ft. Refrigerator/Freezer Energy Star - Page 5 Questions & Answers

The heater has stopped working. Most common cause is the heating element or the fan. The element can crack and the crack does not allow electricity to pass. The fan can jamb up after the ice grows so it may not be the first problem. After you melt the ice you can see if the fan spins. Prepare to fix this before you go shopping and call the local appliance parts pros with your model number and ask if they stock the two items. You'll have to run and buy them same day if you can. The heater is accessed by first removing all your food to another refrigerator or coolers and unplugging the unit. Be ready to do this twice because you may have to order the parts and it takes a couple of days or weeks to get them, if not nearby. Open all the doors and allow the ice to melt. Don't try to rush this with a hair dryer, Do not chop it! You may damage other items behind the rear panel and quickly destroy the unit! Use towels on the floor and sop up the water in the freezer with another towel. When the ice melts, you want to open up the rear panel in the freezer. Ususally a 1/4" nut driver fits the nuts on these panels. You will see the evaporating unit, looks like a radiator. Under it is a black/grey rod with a plug on the end, it is the heater element rod. It looks like the same metal as the rod in the bottom of your dishwasher. This rod resists electricity and heats up when activated in cycles allowing the ice to melt, usually every 8-10 hours. The ice builds normally when the fan draws warm air past the evaporator into the tube going to the fresh food area. The evaporator being cold like a glass of iced tea in the summer, condenses the moisture out of the air and it freezes up forming a block of ice on the evaporator. This ice must get melted out every 8-10 hours by a timer that usually doesn't ever fail. Then the fresh food area stays warm because the ice stops the air passage. The water drains by gravity to the bottom of your unit to a dish either above or below the compressor motor. The heat from the motor evaporates the water into your kitchen making the kitchen feel warmer than the rest of the house sometimes. Unplug the refrigerator from the house's power outlet. You will need a person handywith a multimeter to check if you have continuity through the heating element. Unplug the element and attach either wire of the multimeter to either blade of the plug connector on the element, not the fridge. Set the meter to continuity and it should beep or show a resistance value. No value means no conductance or no electricity can pass. If the element has resistance or continuity beep, look toward the fan. Plug in the heater. Step away from the unit and connect the power to see if the fan starts by setting the unit to the coldest setting. If it starts you may have a sensor gone bad. If it doesn't start leave the doors open and wait a few more minutes. It will start the compressor motor because you did have ice before. If the fan doesn't start while the motor is running you should check for power at the fan with your multimeter set to ac volts.Experienced multimeter users only! connect red to the black and black to the opposit wire of the fan. If your wrong it will not read. If your meter has automatic safety for reverse power tests then you can reverse the meter wires to double check. If there is power to the fan then replace the fam motor. If you get no power reading at the fan you may need a new control PCB. Any other parts beyond these I recommend a service tech. They have access to schematic diagrams and can identify circuitry problems.

My mini-fridge did a similar thing, until I realized that managed to put on the wrong temperature knob. It was technically backwards. They may have done this to you. I mean, it is a longshot, but try putting it on the highest setting to see if that helps. If it does not, you're most likely dealing with a faulty knob that's not actually changing the settings on the thermostat.

go to your cooling control pannel ,,,, increase its number, set high your freezer temp, if you dont get any benifit, call to a service man . your compressor may be stopped working

could be the relay overload on the compressor if not it is a bad compressor

hold the button down for few seconds !!!!!! not in the book ???? wankers,...... the tech support said change water filter but said nothing about water reset don 't be in a hurry to get a man out try this first ................................

E1 is normally a temperature probe failure -

In most cases hair tend to grow in a course of 4 - 6 months after hair transplant is done. In some cases it may take 6 - 12 months. There after hair growth tends to improve over time. According to the quality of the grafts implanted and perfection you may get better results in hair growth. I did my transplant from hair transplant Toronto and my hair started to grow within a span of 4 - 5 months.

Hmm, I'm no expert but since I don't see any other solutions I will give you my meager opinion. 1. In foresight you can't disconnect a compressor while it's running and reconnect it repeatedly or you will fry the compressor, especially in bigger units. A period of 15 minutes should be given to let the gasses convert back or the compressor works overtime. Same reasoning when moving a fridge to not lay it down but if necessary allow the fridge to remain upright for a while prior to operating. For the temperature relay, it is a black on one side, and aluminum on other, 4x a nickel - sized coin shaped looking thing that is a safety feature and it is on the compressor for overheating shut off. This typically wouldn't allow you to hear anything once burnt or shorted so the compressor wouldn't work at all. Therefore I suspect the Capacitor or compressor in this case and be careful to short it out with a plastic handle screwdriver once unit is unplugged as all capacitors retain power and will give u a jolt if not more serious :(_ I would seek a used capacitor from a junk fridge these are typically located under a black cover on the compressor as well and look like a small soup can. Take pics of the wiring for reconnecting and be sure not to contact the ends of the capacitor until you shorted it out as described above. Capacitors can be tested with an ohm meter but is not an accurate test. Try to get the right measuring capacitor for replacement and the amount of farads next to the voltage on side of capacitor is more important than a voltage as long as voltage isn't lower than the original. Also a capacitor is polarity sensitive so don't mix that up. Not sure if I answered your question but may have given you ways to solve them.

There is a fan in the freezer its whats keep your refrig cold there is a flapper that goes from the freezer to the frig maybe its shut off and needs to be opened more ..Also make sure there isnt any ice build up in your freezer if its not defrosting everything will ventually warm up

Check your relay if your compressor is not kicking on

need more info ie:model #

Hello Oggi,I understood from your problem that you are facing an issue with change of a degree at Haier Refrigerator model.I request you to kindly revert with model number or name, so that i will make some search on net and will revert you with best of my information i collect from sites.In anticipation of your response.Regards,Harry

give more details , so i can answer.. please

have the thermostat checked as it appears that it has stopped controlling the temperature you set to

IF this is high use, the wire harness at the bottom is probably bad. This is a pricey item and is a DIY project if you feel up to it.

Yes your thermostat is shorted. It's just not shutting the unit off ever. A thermostat is something you can touch as a user, so no it's not that hard to get to for replacement. Also have the unit unplugged while learning how to repair your appliance.

That would be the thermostat. Can order online.

If it's less then a year old you have a warranty, if it's older you are better off replacing the unit as direct parts are not available and subs would cost more that the unit.
