Some Of These Fridge Freezers If You Open The Door For The Freezer There Is A Switch Between The Fridge And Freezer Door Mine Done The Same And I Had To Replace That Switch It Turns The Fan On When Door Is Closed And Off When Open
sounds like you need to replace your defrost timer it is in the front underneath the fridge if you pull off the front kickplate you will see it in there
You could have an overheating problem, especially when you try to start the computer up again straight after a shutdown and it won't start, and starts only after it cools down.
This could be caused by a faulty fan (ie has stopped spinning or spins slowly) and or dust clogging the heatsink and or fan.
Clean/remove the dust and if the fan is faulty, replace it.
hi thanks for your question. you have a no defrost problem. the cheapest part to replace is the defrost termination switch. located in the freezer., its clamped to one of the coils by the fan motor replace this part. see what happens thanks the appliance doc
if you have a old refrigerator it is probaly dying this happened to my parrents fridge a couple years of ago so they got a newer frigde and it works good but if you by a fridge make sure you by name brands
The only thing a capacitor does is 'kick' the compressor to start it. There is a box on the compressor containing the start relay. If it is defective or dirty, it might buzz. With the power off, find it, remove its cover and use some canned air to blow off any dirt inside. If that doesn't fix it, replace it. If there is a fan down there, be careful...and be sure it is working.
The defrost cycle is not happening like it should, that's what causes the block of ice (and poor air flow). If you have all that defrosted look at the defrost bi-metal, it usually is a small round disk with a couple wires coming out of it and it's clipped on the coils. When it's cold enough, it passes electricity to the heat elements, when it gets hot enough it "opens" and kills power to the heat elements. If that is bad (swollen cracked or bloated) and not passing electricity to the elements that's the problem. Another item would be the defrost timer itself, if it doesn't work (no clock motor turning) then it will never go into defrost. And the last and usually least expected failure would be the heat element themselves not working
