When plugged, kenmore freezer shorts the surge protector and outl

valltes06 on Nov 30, 2008

" "
Last night I noticed my freezer, refrigerator, and oven were all not on. They are all connected to a surge protector and surge protector outlet and it has never been a problem. I unplugged all appliances and plugged the refrigerator and freezer and the surge protector shorted out. I then just plugged the refrigerator and oven and everything was o.k. I tried to plug just the freezer and it made the same problem.

-   I defroster our upright freezer, and now when I plug it in, it trips the whole wall. As long as the freezer isn't plugged in, the electric works fine on that wall (there is also a fridge plugged in to that wall in our garage. Theyboth worked fine until I defrosted the freezer!). What now? -   ahoskins

if thats the case should be an apparent wire off, somethings shorting directly to ground. the chest freezer has all of its wiring behind the access panel on the side of unit , no other wires in machine id look right there for something obvious
