Amana ABB1924DEB / ABB1924DEW / ABB1924DEQ Bottom Freezer Refrigerator Questions & Answers
Where is the defrost timer / does my fridge even have one?
Most often the defrost thermostat fails there should be a diagram or small manual hidden under the kick panel or taped on the back of the refrigerator. I believe this model uses a computer to control all functions including defrost . There should be a way to run diagnostics on this to tell you your problem if you can find the hidden manual.
Both freezer and refrigerator were at warmest
HI,It sounds like your compressor has failed to restart, by either the relay to the compressor or stuck in defrost. If stuck in defrost you can unplug unit and due to current temperatures it should restart. By if your relay or compressor fails to start and you not sure of how it works, out may need to call out a repair person to look at it for you. I have seen compressors lock up and have seen the compressor relay fail too. I am personally against using hard start kits, for to me they are a short term fix and have no dates to functions and can leave you in the same boat as today. I hope it is as simple as a relay package, but check your warranty paperwork... This may be under a warranty if it is the compressor that failed, but the relay package is not. When the unit fires up, have the amperage noted for future reference, its important to know how strong the compressor is after repair.I hope this helpsAgain, unplug unit to see if it is just stuck in defrost to reset the control board, I left part numbers at the bottom of this post for your reference.

First I would check cold control. Thats where you turn it off, if your temp is not warm. it can
be defective and not shutting off. If your temp is warm proceed with the following.
I would check the fan in the freezer. Listen to see if it is running
It moves air to the ref from the freezer
Then check to see if freezer control is turned WARMER, which makes the Ref. colder
Also this might be a common Defrost problem, Ice
is not being melted by the defrost system.The fan can't blow through the coils into the fridge.
Take out back panel of freezer to check for ice buildup. The coils should be clean.
There are three components to a defrost system- a heater,heater thermostat, and a timer unless you have a defrost electronic card.
Its best handled by a Technician but you could possibly do it by taking your model number to the nearest appliance parts store and asking for the parts. They are mostly located in freezer ,behind back panel on freezer coils.except the card which is usually located in ref The parts store will have info
Also check fan undernearh Ref in the rear
Clean condenser coils underneath
Check cold control (thats where you turn it colder)

Here's an exploded view of it.
http://www.appliancepartspros.com/partsearch/model.aspx?model_id=5167282&diagram_id=28326237#d28326237
It appears that the two screws that hold the handle on go in from the front. I'm not positive on this model without seeing it, but I would look under the handle first for the screws.
My freezer frosts up , and it never shuts off,
CHECK FOR LEAKS IN THE DOOR SEALS THE FROST IS DUE TO THE PRESENCE OF HOT AIR HITTING THE COLDER AIR IN THE UNIT AND THAT MIGHT BE THE REASON IT STAYS RUNNING. SHOULD GET TO THE BOTTOM FAST CAUSE IT WILL COST YOU LATER IN THE POWER BILL.
