Hello, I was just given a Kitchenaid Superba side by side refrigerator/freezer. I can't find the serial number, but it looks like the picture I saw for this refrigerator (KSR525IL). I plugged it in last evening, and It worked (all night I think?!?...it was cold inside of it this morning). I was standing there with the door open, to put things in it, and the control panel lights went off and with that, the refrigerator stopped running. Then trying to get it to run (unplugging and re-plugging it in, pushing temperature buttons up and down, pushing the on and off button) but nothing happened. Just standing there not actually doing anything at the moment, it would come back on for a couple of minutes, then go off. ...and right now it's off and wont come back on. Help please, Thanks

I just repaird a unit with this same symptom. Yours may be the same. The plastic part that holds the switch was broken (pins). See the diagram at http://www.partselect.com/Schematics/Whirlpool/KAZVHYR3.gif Item 15 is the part. The switch sets on a coupld pins and the pins break easily, thus the switch falls off and the dispensor lever can't operate it. If you look up inside with a flashlight you can see the switch, etc. and should be able to tell if it's held in place properly.

I would suggest not buying a KitchenAid. I have the same problem with my ice maker. Have had nothing but problems with every KitchenAid product that I have ever owned. I will never purchase another KitchenAid product.

All of there appliances are second rate. That is "The KitchenAid Difference"

please check the air flow to the refrigerator side. it could be a stuck damper motor or damper thermostat. if the fan inside the freezer is running, you should be able to feel cold air coming out off the vents in the refrigerator side. you might have to press the button light switch on the panels to run the fan.

The ice maker has stopped working. The red led light blinks when the freezer door is opened. Any thoughts?
