I have an Amanda side by side, the fridge temp

9 is too warm set perameters 1-7
you need sevice
check to see what lights are flashing ,in what order

Defrost heater is open and needs to be replaced. Or maybe the defrost timer is no good along with defrost thermostat.

Check them out.

Bottom freezer fridges are especially susceptible to

1. Dust build up on the condenser coil that impedes heat transfer to the outside from inside the box
   • Remove the (bottom) footplate by grasping outside edges and pulling/levering out and popping it free.
   • Use vac crevice attachment and coil brush to clean away all dust from the coil and foot plate.
   • Replace plate and allow 24 hours for inside temp to stabilize.
   • Adjust top temp setting if needed to maintain safe temp level.
   • Repeat semianually or annually as scheduled maintenance--depending on the dustiness is fridge's location.
2. Airflow blockage through the crispers and meat keepers.
   • Remove crispers and meat keeper as well as glass cover shelf.
   • Find cooling passages between crispers and at midline of meat keeper.
   • Remove any buildup of air blocking debris.
   • Wipe up fridge box floor beneath meat keeper.
   • Reinstall glass shelf, meat keeper, and crispers.
   • Check perodically for poor temperature/moisture keeping in crispers and for water pooling on fridge box floor as signs of blocked air flow through criispers and meat keepers.

seeing that 32 is freezing point of water,its not suprising that food is freezing.it should be 38f or +3c.when was the last time you did a FULL defrost(NO HAIRDRYERS PLEASE).ALSO CHECK DOOR SEALS ARE TIGHT ALL ROUND.

Hi!!

Check

Temp. control knobs,

Most likely, the evaporator coil is covered w/ice, obstructin the air flow thru it and to the fridge side of the unit.

Remove freezer back panel (where the little fan is) and check for iced evaporator coil, if so, unplug unit and use a heat gun or hair dryer to melt ice, make sure all ice is melted andthe air duct going to the fridge is clear.

Once this is done, restart unit and set temp. 1/3 of the dial, ie. if the dial goes from 0-9, set it on 3. wait 24 hrs to make adjustments

Keep me posted!! Rate this post!!!

it proberbly has slow gas leakage get it toped up with gas and the leakage points must be traced and sealed

Since refrigerators were designed to run in your 72° kitchen, when you put a fridge outside, where its colder than normal operating REFRIGERATOR temperatures, i.e. 35-40°F, because that ambient temp is colder than fridge temp, the thermostat in the fridge section reads it as normal temperature, and does not turn unit on. it does not read what the freezer temp is. You have a couple of choices: bring the unit inside, heat your garage, or only use it for pop and beer in the summer. You can reply here or send me a question from my website: www.FixMyFridge.net

Too cold in fridge if it is freezing is your milk or other items freezing. Check temp in fridge with a good thermometer.

. Cut everything off for a few minutes then turn it back on and listen for a click from the compressor relay as the compressor tries to start.
Is the compressor motor running.If no check starter/overload relay.
Check to see if the condenser fan at the back underneath near the compressor is running. If no check fan.

Are the condenser coils near there warm or room temp. should be warm



Part 4 on this diagram is your relay. http://www.searspartsdirect.com/partsdirect/getSubComp.pd?modelNumber=ASD2624HES&productCategoryId=0165000&brandId=1268&modelName=AMANA-REFRIGERATION&diagramPageId=00013&componentDescription=COMPRESSOR&documentId=M0608085&backToLink=Return%20to%20subcomponent%20list Here's how you can check it. http://www.acmehowto.com/howto/appliance/refrigerator/refrigerator.php

Look in the freezer side for a ice buildup on the back wall.
Ice= defrost parts issue.
Check the fan in the freezer. Is it running?
Not running? Could be a defrost thermostat issue or a bad fan motor.
