20 Most Recent Amana Side-By-Side Refrigerator 26 cu. ft. - ASD2622HR - Page 8 Questions & Answers

you could have a bad timer or cold control and the light could have failed from the heat but try banging on the control,not to hard,it can stick when it fails and sometimes a good wack will get it going the timer is also there where the cold control is,there's a hole below the timer,if you stick a flat head regular screw driver up in there you can turn the timer out of defrost, just one or two clicks,if everything starts to run the timer is bad but i would check them if you unplugged the fridge and plugged something else in the plug to make sure you have power there

if everything is out even the lights check the plug and make sure the fuse or breaker isn't popped,unplug the fridge and plug a lamp or something in there to check power,i've seen fridges on a gfi plug so check that too,but sounds like no power to fridge.next time send the full model number off of the machine,

that is hard to tell.. It might not be defrosting or maybe have a bad fan motor. Freon leaks usually do not happen with Amana's depending on the age/model (you gave no info about this or model#) You would have to list other symptoms along with a model# for further assistance

Think of a water faucet.. You turn it on and water comes out and you turn it off and the water stops, right? Now when a faucet gets old sometimes it will drip and you have to jiggle it to make it stop. In the back of the fridge you have the same basic thing. A valve that opens and closes to allow water to flow.. It is split into two sides, one for the water in the door and one for the icemaker. One side could go bad while the other still works and that sounds like what is happening. Some have one and some have two depending on if you have a water filter but this one looks to be an oldie but goodie before the water filters were factory installed. The part# you need is WPW10247599 and I fount it for under 40$. You need to unplug the unit and turn off the water to it. Change the valve and defrost the tube going to the icemaker.repair if needed.

There is a tube that runs from freezer to a tray under the fridge. Clean out the tray and disconnect the tube, blow through it to be sure it is clear.

Your Manuel should tell you which buttons to push together to reset indicator..

To get the filter off I think you have to twist and pull

Maybe a bad seal.

The purpose of a refrigeration circuit is to move heat from the inside of the cabinet to the outside. The compressor pumps refrigerant around the circuit and if everything is ok the evaporator is cold and the condenser becomes warm. If the compressor is running but nothing inside or outside is happening either the compressor is defective or the refrigerant has leaked away. If the condenser is warm or hot but the inside is not cold the defrosting panel might be permanently switched on.
