Amana ABB2224DEW / ABB2224DEQ / ABB2224DEB Bottom Freezer Refrigerator Questions & Answers
Freezer door won't slide open
A tightly frozen door could take days to unfreeze inside. Try using a hair dryer around the door seal. It will take awhile to unfreeze the door this way but it is quicker than waiting for it to defrost. You may have had an extreme leak. Turn the water off to the freezer and turn the freezer controls off or set to zero. You are in a pickle! This is not going to be a quick fix.
Control board reset?
Amana
version of adaptive defrost : Press
refrigerator light switch five times in six seconds to initiate defrost cycle.
Pressing five more times within six seconds will cancel defrost and go straight
into the run mode. Similar operation on both bottom mount and SxS refrigerators.
After the defrost terminator/thermostat opens, six minutes of dwell time occurs
before the compressor and condenser fan motor will operate. After defrost
terminator/thermostat open, 10 minutes of dwell time occurs before the
evaporator fan motor will operate.
Fridge and freezer stopped working.Power still on
The double dashes in your display are for one of two reasons. First situation would be would be "you turned the unit off". Press the up arrow on the feezer or fresh food control until a 4 is in each display. Second, if the control is locked out, the board has been scrambled or failed possibly from a power surge. Unplug unit for 30 seconds, and plug it back in and try to set control's for "4". If controls are still locked out, the board (12868513) needs to be replaced.
Ice maker not working
The first thing I would check is the FILL Sensor. It usually is a Wire or Paddle device that sits above the ice. Most of them you can manually move up to a locked position that shuts off the ice machine.Also, some machines have an OFF switch on the Ice Machine Motor housing.
