dump it....please dont waste anymore time....trust me...my 21 years of doing this is tell you.

Replace the gasket.

Your local appliance parts hose should have them in stock, and if not can likely order them.

This is a common problem and quite easy to fix. Most gaskets are simply pressed into a seam in the door. A few are held in place by simple metal brackets than can be removed with a screwdriver.

The fan won't work when the unit is in the defrost cycle. Some won't run when the door is open. It won't run when the compressor isn't running. Test it here>http://www.acmehowto.com/howto/appliance/refrigerator/refrigerator.php And yes, you can replace it.

compressor not running or defrost system not working.

Check the thermostat. make sure it is turned on. The thermostat can shut it off. Also check to see if you have power to that outlet you are using. If none of that is the problem you can try and bypass the thermostat with a jumper wire( If you are comfortable with do this) Be careful when doing this cause electric shock is possible. don't touch any wires directly

- Loose flooring or floor not firm.
- Cabinet not level.
- Tubing in contact with cabinet, other tubing or other metal.
- Drip tray vibrating.
- Fan hitting another part or worn fan motor bearings. Unplug the unit and rotate fan manually by your finger.
- Compressor mounting grommets worn or missing; mounting hardware loose or missing.
- Free or loose parts causing or allowing noise during operation
- Check compressor it may contact with tubing or other parts.
- Check the body of your unit is not touching the wall or other object.

Interesting! I'm going to assume that this is a 110V unit running on an alternate power supply rather than regular AC. First: test the circuit with at least a 100 watt light bulb for a few minutes. If that looks okay (bulb at full brightness, not flickering), let's go on. What I also don't know is what 'overloads' you're speaking about. If it is the compressor (there is a light clicking sound periodically in or near the black compressor unit), the problem could be that it is overheating because something is blocking the airflow around the coils like an ant nest or debris. You've got to go in and clean them. Unplug unit, remove the contents and glass shelves, lay the unit on its side so you can see what's what in the back. Remove anything that looks like the manufacturer didn't put it in there. Look up into the area where the tubes go into the back panel area, too. Do not clean with water! If the unit is more than 5 years old, it probably should be scrapped. Note that older units have R-12 refrigerant which should be handled only by a qualified tech or recycler.

It controls the compressor switching on and off.. https://www.google.com/search?q=haier+hbf130ss+wiring+diagram+pdf ..

Steve, Have checked around the web for parts..ie temp sensor, control board, which would cause your problem if defective, and there are no parts avalible. NUTS!

Ckecked around for the fan, parts for this unit are few and far between did locate some on ebay so head over there. Cuz there were quite a few but without seeing yours I couldn't match up what I was seeing.

If your Haier 10.5 model 10TG31SW refrigerator is not cooling, there could be a few different issues causing the problem. Here are a few things you can check:

1. Check the thermostat: Ensure that the thermostat is set to the appropriate temperature. If it is set too low, the fridge will not cool properly.
2. Check the condenser coils: The condenser coils may be dirty or clogged, preventing the refrigerator from cooling properly. Clean the coils with a brush or vacuum.
3. Check the door seal: Make sure the door seal is tight and not damaged. If the seal is not tight, cold air will escape and the refrigerator will not cool properly.
4. Check the evaporator fan motor: If the evaporator fan motor is not functioning properly, it could cause the refrigerator not to cool.
5. Check the compressor: If the compressor is not functioning properly, the refrigerator will not cool. It may need to be replaced by a professional.
6. Check the refrigerant level: If the refrigerant level is low, it can cause the cooling system to fail. This is a job that should be done by a professional with the right equipment and experience.
7. Check the defrost system: If the defrost system is not working properly, the evaporator coils will frost over and the refrigeration will not work.
8. Check the power supply: Make sure the fridge is properly plugged in and that the outlet has power.

Please note that it's also possible that there could be other issues causing your refrigerator not to cool, so it may be best to seek the help of a professional if the above steps do not resolve the problem.

It depends on the model of your Haier refrigerator. Many newer models of Haier refrigerators have a feature to disable the alarm beep when the doors are left open. To disable the alarm beep, you will need to check the user manual of your refrigerator for specific instructions on how to do this, as the process may vary depending on the model. Here are a few general steps that could help you to disable the alarm beep:

1. Look for a button or switch labeled "alarm" or "door alarm" on the control panel of your refrigerator.
2. Press and hold the button or switch for a few seconds until the alarm stops beeping. This should disable the door alarm.
3. In some models, you can disable it through the settings menu of the control panel, look for the alarm setting and turn it off.
4. Look for the manual of your refrigerator, it should have the information on how to do it.

If you can't find a way to disable the alarm beep, or you are not comfortable with following the instructions, it's best to contact the manufacturer or a professional for further assistance.

It sounds like the wire you're describing is the defrost thermostat. The defrost thermostat is responsible for controlling the defrost cycle of the refrigerator. The flat piece of metal with hooks at each end that you mentioned is likely the clip that attaches the thermostat to the evaporator coils in the freezer compartment. To reattach the thermostat, you will need to follow these steps:

1. Locate the evaporator coils in the freezer compartment. The coils are typically located in the back of the freezer.
2. Carefully place the hooks of the clip onto the evaporator coils.
3. Insert the metal prong on the end of the thermostat wire into the clip.
4. Ensure the wire is properly seated in the clip and that the clip is securely fastened to the evaporator coils.
5. Put back the cover panel of the freezer compartment
6. Check that the thermostat wire is not pinched or crimped and that it has enough slack to move freely.
7. Plug the refrigerator back in and turn it on.

It's important to note that working with the refrigeration system could be dangerous and it's always recommended to contact a professional if you're not comfortable with the task.

It sounds like your Haier deep freezer is having an issue with the compressor and cooling system. Here are a few things you can check:

1. Check the compressor: Make sure the compressor is running and not too hot to the touch. If the compressor is not running or is hot, it may be faulty and will need to be replaced.
2. Check the compressor's overload protector: The overload protector may have tripped, check to see if it is tripped and reset it if necessary.
3. Check the compressor's capacitors: They could be damaged and need replacing.
4. Check the evaporator fan motor: If the evaporator fan motor is not functioning properly, it could cause the freezer not to freeze.
5. Check the defrost system: If the defrost system is not working properly, the evaporator coils will frost over and the refrigeration will not work.
6. Check the thermostat: Ensure that the thermostat is set to the appropriate temperature. If it is set too low, the freezer will not freeze properly.
7. Check the power supply: Make sure the freezer is properly plugged in and that the outlet has power.
8. Check the clicking sound: If the clicking sound is coming from the compressor, it could be the compressor's relay switch, which is responsible for turning the compressor on and off. This could be the issue and will need to be replaced.

Please note that if a compressor is a sealed unit and you're not able to charge it, it's best to contact the manufacturer or a professional for further assistance.
