Dale! Simply awesome video. We have the exact same problem, same fridge. Easy to follow, excellent camera work. Thank you for saving us a lot of grief. (great music seclections too!)
Wonderful video. I might replace this preemptively. I was just in there diagnosing a knocking noise but it sounds like it's coming from higher up. Investigating the issue led me to figure out that the fan in the freezer wasn't running properly, and now I know why my fridge wasn't getting sufficiently cold! Gonna order a replacement and do the thermostat at the same time for insurance. Now, to figure out that knocking noise....
Thanks - currently running force defrost. I think this is our issue. Fan kicks on etc, but stops. Freezer is cold, but fridge isn’t. I also couldn’t find how to put this model fridge in test mode anywhere, so I appreciate the walk through.
The best video I have ever seen . You got right to the problem no stupid intro . I have been looking how to take the bottom door off so i can replace my ice maker. Thank you now i need to know how to put the cover back on the water filter cheers
One other thing to check because I have been going crazy. Fridge has all the same problems but heater and thermister good. Make sure the water drain is not clogged. Seems like a no brainer but that was my issue
Hi there - Thanks for the video! I had to replace my icemaker and even though that wasn't the end goal of this video, it was exactly what I needed to figure out the silly things like removing the drawer, and "do I turn the water off?"
Hi. I had all the symptoms you mentioned and so I thought Yeii I can do this. So I replaced the sensor on Friday … unfortunately the fridge is still warm. On the front panel I have the fridge setting in 4 stars and the freezer as well. What else could it be and is there another video ? I am wondering if it couAny help would be appreciated ?
Yes if you slowly select each option at a time one of them causes it to actuat. I can not remember which function as it's been over a year. Behind the fridge there should be an instruction manual showing each test function
Thank you for illuminating my issues! What would happen if I just did the "defrosting" steps you described? Would that be a short-term fix until I can get someone out to take it apart? Thank you.
@@daleofalltrades you are a lifesaver-thank you! I've been without a fridge for 2 days and can't get anyone to look at it. When I talked to an actual repair technician on the phone, they were no help whatsoever. I even told him about the ice and frost and he said that wasn't related. Thanks a ton.
