Hi,

As the weather is getting warmer for many people their freezer and/or refrigerator do not work right because of a dirty condenser coil...there are also many other things that can go wrong. If you are hearing a clicking or buzzing then check out the last two tips.

If your refrigerator is running but warm, then…

Check out this tip that I wrote about that... it is a great place to start trouble shooting your unit...and something that you can do rather then calling a repair person to do a simple thing for you...

Call a technician that's the better advice that everyone would gave rate please : )

First thing to do : Check the freezer compressor and refrigerant gas performance

HI, The reason for the over-pull is due to the unstable conditions located at the main PCB that controls this affected unit. The voltage is not stable, due to the damage located at the PCB(circuit instabilities). Just to be safe, have your local electrician inspect the breaker box for shorts and damage to the appropriate circuit block. If the electrician confirms that the breaker is in good condition; replace the main control board(PCB) that is mounted near the compressor or behind the rear access panel.

low on gas or defrost mode failure....if the element become frozen then the air will not circulate around freezer compartment properly....check the defrost element or timer.

1.It's a dirty condenser - clean it with soft vacuum brush
2.If it's clean - check condenser fan motor-it's located behind or before condenser - it should running.

The water inlet valve on the back of unit opens when the ice maker needs water. If the valve doesn't seal good because of sediment or wear it will continue to drip and when the water reaches the ice maker supply tube it will freeze blocking the fill tube.. You can take the water line off the valve and watch to see if it drips.

Two things come to mind. 1. Fan motor burned up. 2. Defrost heater shorted.

is the compressor running if not check the defrost timer

if its a whirlpoo at the bottom of the trim there are two slots use a flat head pull down and pry out

try the cold control and or the defrost timer

first replace the water valve

check for frost in back of the freezer

change the ice maker

check the water valve

try pluging it in else where if it still does it theres a dead short mabey in the compressor
