SOURCE: My Amana 20 refrigerator does not cool. It starts
yes, it can be repaired but ir can be expensive.Compressor problem, filter problem, check with a certified technician
SOURCE: Refrig. not cooling properly
if the timer is working the most likely problem is the bi-metal(also called defrost thermostat)it is the disc shaped piece that clamps to the coils behind the back panel.you could also have a problem with the heating element,these items require a multi meter to check
SOURCE: defrost heater does not cycle on
you didn't send the full model number,starts with 110.or similar,you have a defrost problem,it could be a couple of things so you need to read out some parts with a meter,you could have a bad defrost thermostat the timer or adaptive defrost board depending on model number,bad heater,if it has a timer you need to advance it by turning the middle with a screw driver until you hear a click and the fan shuts off in the freezer,now you have it in defrost,see if the heater is on,if it is you have abad timer,if it didn't come on check the t stat,if it has plug in connectors on the wires disconnect the t stat and plug the wire derectly to the heater or if you have to cut the wires cut them and bypass the thermostat,if the heater comes on then you know you have a bad t stat,also pull the wires off the heater and check the heater,if the heater is bad it's a good idea to change out the t stat anyway,if it has an adaptive defrost board check the tech sheet that should be behind or on the bottom kick plate,remove it and look it will tell you how to put the fridge into defrost,i think you push in the both door switches 5 times at the same time,if it doesn't go into defrost could be the board,you'll have to still read out the heater with a meter,also if you read out the thermostat it has to be cold,if it warms up it will read open but it still could be good,if you need any more help with this let me know and send model number so i can help better
Testimonial: "Would have helped to know where these controls are located. The refiderator is located in a close area and hard to move. The model begins with 106."

Good day,
Not really effective. In the old days the coils were exposed and could be defrosted relatively quickly.
In a frost free machine the coils are located behind the rear wall of the freezer compartment. That compartment is well insulated and you have no practical way of accessing it.
The bottom line is manually defrosting the frost free
machine involves shutting the machine down completely for about 12 hours, with the freezer door left open. For most people that would cause a lot of food to be lost.
You have made an interesting point. Actually, it's kind of ludicrous to turn on high wattage electric heaters every 12 hours or so to gain automatic defrosting. But that's the world we live in.
Conventional defrost refrigerators are still made, but only come in very small sizes.
Testimonial: "Thanks for the help."
Its defrost problem, the freezer should cool,
then freeze, then defrost cycle should start. In your case freezer is cooling,
then freezing, but its not defrosting. That's why fridge section is not
cooling.-------
