Open the freezer and look for frost buildup on the back panel. If you see frost, you have a defrost problem. Possible causes are the defrost heater or evaporator thermistor. You will need a multimeter to test the components. The heater should show continuity. The thermistor should be between 10k and 80k? at fridge to freezer temperatures. Anything less than that, the thermistor is bad. Remove the back panel of the freezer to access. The heater is mounted to the bottom of the evaporator coils. The evaporator thermistor is mounted to the top of the evaporator.
If no frost, I would suspect the freezer thermistor. It's at the left lower rear of the freezer or behind a grill on the right wall of the freezer. Same thing, if it reads less than 10k? replace it.
If all the components check good, the only thing left is the main control board. You can find this behind a panel on the back of the fridge.
Part numbers: Defrost heater WR51X10055, thermistor WR55X10025, Control board WR55X10942.
Why internal lights not working yet panel lights do?
There could be several reasons why the internal lights in a vehicle may not be working while the panel lights are functioning. Here are a few possible explanations:
1. Blown fuse: Check the fuse box to see if the fuse for the interior lights has blown. If it has, replace it with a new one of the same rating.
2. Faulty light switch: The switch that controls the interior lights may be faulty or worn out. Try toggling the switch on and off to see if it makes any difference. If not, consider replacing the switch.
3. Loose or corroded wiring: Inspect the wiring connections for the interior lights. Loose or corroded connections can disrupt the electrical flow and prevent the lights from working. Tighten any loose connections or clean off any corrosion.
4. Burnt-out bulbs: If all the interior lights are not working, it's possible that multiple bulbs have burnt out at the same time. Check the bulbs and replace any that are no longer functional.
5. Dimmer switch settings: Some vehicles have a dimmer switch that controls the brightness of the interior lights. Make sure the dimmer switch is not turned all the way down or set to a very low level.
If none of these solutions resolve the issue, it may be best to consult a professional mechanic or electrician to diagnose and repair the problem.
