Amana ASD2622HRQ Side by Side Refrigerator - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

Are you saying your freezer coil is solidly frozen?

Hello Racinfrogs, You are most likely looking at a serious FROST blockage... FIRST thing to check... YOUR DEFROST pan... If dry... you have found your TROUBLE.. A serious FROST blockage can be caused by SEVERAL air intrusion issues... Ice cube stuck: holding chute door open... or a pizza box holding any door ajar... Perhaps even a failed (or poorly aligned) DOOR GASKET... (all these will be burdening your defrost pan: lots of water) FINALLY... and very common A DEFROST CIRCUIT FAILURE. (this will be manifested by a DRY defrost pan) Easiest... Part to check & change Your REFRIGERATOR has a defrost timer... Check here for replacement part (wp67001036) and INSTRUCTIONAL VIDEO... http://www.appliancepartspros.com/whirlpool-timer-defrost-wp67001036-ap6010261.html In addition to their instructions.. I always SUGGEST you should take pictures and notes of what COLOR wire goes where... BEFORE getting in trouble...!! There are only 2 (two) other parts to the defrost circuit... EASY once you understand... - Thermal switch to keep defrost temperature v-low - heater element (ungoverned can ruin food/plastic). Hope this helps... ELSE comment me back BEFORE getting in trouble.

The bar should be down in ice making mode, if you ever noticed the bar rises upon ejection of ice cubes from the tray, and falls to its postion hovering above the ice bin, as the bin gets full the bar cant lower to the postion indicating a full bin and it willl stop ice making.

Your defrost heater or defrost thermostat may be bad. Test defrost heating element for continuity. If heater is good, replace the defrost thermostat. In most cases, replacing both is advisable.

Abesolutely a bad defrost heater. it is too weak to defrost the ice completely, therefore it falls off the coils and freezes on the drain tray. If you dont want to replace the heater you can also just install a drain tube heater that wires into the evaperator fan, it will run constantly as the fan does to keep water from freezing in the tube or tray. All parts can be purchased at http://www.reliableparts.com/ using your model number.

Can't remove it just clean by hand.

auto defrost might be on. turn the dial until the compressor clicks on. it's usually located under the fridge behind the front grate.

ck here... https://www.appliancepartspros.com/repair-help/amana-refrigerator-sxd22s2w-repair/sxd22s2w-leaking.html But before throwing parts at it give their tech 877# a hollar.. Best to you

What tends to happen is that service techs have certain common generic parts in their van, and rather than ordering a part to fit and have a return visit, they fit what they have. Parts seem to be readily available. The compressor is listed but no HP Specs. The bottom show another model and that R134A (1/4HP) is different to R134 (1/5 HP). https://www.google.com/search?q=amana+arb1917csr+parts+diagram https://www.google.com/search?q=Tecumseh+TP122AR003B8 ..

counterclockwise 1/4 turn and pull down to remove.
Save bypass for use at a later date.

Operating Instructions provided with water filter

Sharla, It could possibly be the ice maker rod that tells the ice maker whether it's full or not. If it's in the down position it wants to make ice and it'll make a clicking noise. Lift the rod up if it's down. Hopefully this helps!? Best to you.

I'd like to know how you determine the age based on the info inside my Amana. I double checked the numbers. Model AFI2538AEB4 Serial KY2886165

1. Check the thermostat: Make sure the thermostat is set to a temperature that is low enough to cool the refrigerator. If the thermostat is not working properly, it may need to be replaced.
2. Check the condenser coils: The condenser coils on the back of the refrigerator should be clean and free of dust and debris. If the coils are dirty, the refrigerator will not be able to cool properly. Use a vacuum cleaner or a brush to clean the coils.
3. Check the fan motor: If the fan motor is not running, the refrigerator will not be able to cool properly. Check if the fan motor is receiving power and if it's spinning freely. If the fan motor is faulty, it will need to be replaced.
4. Check the start relay: The start relay helps the compressor start up. If the start relay is faulty, the compressor may not start and the refrigerator will not be able to cool properly. If the start relay is faulty, it will need to be replaced.
5. Check the compressor: If the compressor is not working, the refrigerator will not be able to cool properly. Check if the compressor is receiving power and if it's running. If the compressor is faulty, it will need to be replaced.

It's possible that the issue could be with a micro switch located on the ice maker cabinet that is activated when the prong on the back of the ice/auger tray is inserted. It's also possible that there could be another issue with the dispenser, such as a problem with the wiring or a malfunctioning component. I would recommend checking the wiring and testing any other micro switches or components that are related to the dispenser to see if they are functioning properly. If you are unsure how to do this, I would recommend consulting the user manual or contacting a qualified technician for further assistance.

check to see if defrost fan working

possible bad display control board
