The food in the refrigerator is freezing. I have had several calls to the repair guy. He changed the control panel but that doesn't seem to help. Now the water dispenser will not work. Any ideas?

This fridge unit isnt well known to me but most follow suit in design. I would say having an electronic board normally refers that there is an auger motor controlling the fridge temperature. As the demand for temp. is needed the electronic sensor will instruct the new board to open and close the auger motor flap accordingly. Possibly the motor is stuck or faulty or the sensor faulty. My bet is to check the auger motor. Call him in again and ask him to check it with you. (Normally mechanical control works with a thermostat whereas an electronic control works with an auger.

U line wine fridge freezing

My daughter is Sarah Smith! She lives in Cumbria.

Sounds like multiple things, and because of the cost of parts, it is best to call a service engineer. The standard fix would be to replace the thermostat or thermistor sensor. The fact the display has failed is likely to require a new control board and display as well, but one may be causing the other.

Common solutions for: U-Line Refrigerator freezing food. The temperature control thermostat directs voltage to the compressor, evaporator fan motor, and condenser fan motor (if applicable). ... If the thermistor is defective, the compressor and evaporator fan may run too frequently.

The automatic defrost cycle is not working in freezer. Can this just be low on freon and making it freeze up? I can defrost and refrigerator will work fine till it freezes up again.

Most times on your model it is the ADC or adaptive defrost control. Part number 13 in photo here=> MSD2756GEW Maytag Refrigerator Control Panel This is behind your controls inside your fresh food compartment.

When the fresh food compartment begins to get too cold is usually when the part #8 in that photo goes bad and that is called the auto air damper

More on that part next time. I believe you will be fine once the ADC is changed, Thanks, Sea Breeze

Refrigerator freezes food regardless of dial setting. Control board?

Thank you. The part number you need is 240383703 at $146.18 thru Sears and is the control for the refrigerator not the freezer. The refrigerator control operates the opening and closing of the damper door which lets air pass from the freezer to the fresh food. The control is keeping the door open longer than it should. Hope this helps. Worth the repair and has been one of the most common problems with this model.

Everything is freezing. Local repairman says the

Hi, what he is talking about is panel in the vent from the freezer to the fridge. Basically when you want the fridge colder a little panel (damper) inside the vent opens and allows more cold air in the fridge. When you want it warner the damper closes and allows less cold air into the fridge. This damper is controlled by the fridge control. What your repair guy is saying is the door is stuck in the open position which is allowing too much cold air into the fridge and freezing the food. if you have any other questions please feel free to comment. Mike
