Two things to do would be to defrost the system by turning it off.
Something to think about if you find that the compressor is faulty.The fan I checked is behind the fridge, along with compressor. Appreciate your help and will post what I find out.If neither side of the compressor is cold, are the condenser coils warm or hot?If not it means that there is no refrigerant being pumped through the system, so perhaps the compressor is faulty. Looks like i’ll be repairing my own fridge since i cant depend on a sears tec to get it right the first time especially after purchasing this unit with a warranty. Says there is nothing he can do and to call back if it happens again. If you need anything else, just let me know.
I know way more then I’d like about Refrigerators.I don’t know if this has anything to do with my refrigerator working again, but after a week of no cooling or freezing I put it in and out of demo mode a couple of times. If... the condenser fan motor does not have continuity, replace it.The evaporator fan motor draws air over the evaporator (cooling) coils and circulates it throughout the refrigerator and freezer compartments.
Be aware though that it only has a warranty on the parts not the labour.If it is in an unreachable part of the fridge it is still covered.If you purchased an Elite model you paid for the privilege of having a longer warranty on the sealed systemIt is the compressor only that has the 10 year warranty.Although having said that, failing 1 month out of warranty for such a failure should be taken into account by the manufacturer on what they consider to be a "quality" product.The sealed system includes the compressor, evaporator, condenser, filter dryer and associated pipes etc.If the problem is anywhere in this area except the pipes where they are encased in the cabinet insulation then it can be fixed.The refrigerant would have to be extracted, the faulty part replaced, the sealed system needs then to be evacuated (vacuum created) and new refrigerant put in and then the system needs to be tested to make sure that the pressures, temperatures etc, are OK and then resealed again.If it is no longer under warranty then it is more a decision of whether it is economically viable to do it or not given the age and condition of the refrigeratorHow can you tell how old your refrigerator is? So is it the defrost mode not turning off? Brought it to repair store and they said it may be the mother board.I replaced the main board but it didn't help.
Unfortunately, this was the only real option I had at the time.I bought my Kenmore elite model 795.75043 last November 2018. My 2016 Kenmore "not so" Elite compressor failed in 2018, replaced $99 after many weeks waiting for repairs through Sears. The sheet recommended testing the voltage with the compressor connector connected and after 10 minutes check the voltage on “CON201” (you will have to push test leads into back of connector to make contact). If the refrigerator is not cold enough the condenser coils may be dirty.
When delivered, the tech said to keep it at #4 onMy Amana refrigerator- bottom freezer, Model ARB2214CC, had a strange sound for a couple of days...sounded like an alarm buzz, not clicking sound.
A couple weeks ago, it stopped running and I lost a lot of food.
Came to house 5x. You should hear the motor start.
Already ordered? The evaporator fan, the compressor fan or both?The evap fan will not run with the doors open -don't want to blow cold air out the door - so you'll have to listen for it running. This compressor does NOT have a capacitor.
A month and a half later and it stops cooling/freezing again. If they made a bad product, they need to own that 100%.Thank you!
It's good to know you're out there and awake in the wee hours when I finally have time to ask questions about my Jenn Air. As debris builds up on the coils, the refrigerator becomes less efficient, causing the refrigerator to work harder to cool down.
Is your refrigerator too cold or not cold enough? The day it arrived the fridge started working again after I put it in and out of demo mode several times over several days like someone else here suggested.
On day two, I noticed things in my freezer were startHELPI made 90 crepes for a party tonight. Kenmore is one of the most recognizable brand names in the world when it comes to appliances.
So the compressor has not failed this time, but for some reason the refrigerator evap is not cooling. Everyone thinks they are an expert.Any updates? I don’t know, but it doesn’t cost anything to try and see if it works.probably still bad, since it was only reading 33VAC,the compressor better.
Finally, if the motor does not run at all, use a multimeter to test the motor windings for continuity. To see what credentials have been verified by a third-party service, please click on the "Verified" symbol in some Experts' profiles. Temp control for frig is set at 37 degrees My power went out last night and I am trying to figure out if I can still use items in frig. If the blade does not spin freely, replace the condenser fan motor.
I already bought new fridge and this is my garage project. If the temperature control thermostat is not working properly, it may prevent the refrigerant system from running. The compressor is covered by Sears, but not the labor. Mine did not.
