Several weeks ago heard a rattle sound from fridge. Haven't heard since. Yesterday noted the refrigerator side of the side by side was warm. The freezer is still good. Looking at the circuit diagram noticed a test for the Baffle Module. I thought a quick fix would be to check the baffle door and when I manipulated it it popped off in my hand. No big deal, this would allow cold air to circulate from the freezer side. No real air movement but enough to keep it at 50 degrees. The freezer side is holding at 4 degrees.
Older refrigerators had a separate small fan/motor to circulate air from one side to the other. The circuit diagram for this Jenn-Air only shows the condenser and evaporator fan/motors. It appears the air circulation to the refrigerator side is being driven by the evaporator fan/motor.
If this is the case, I would like to know what the plan of attack should be. From the lower back or from inside the freezer compartment (I haven't unloaded all the frozen food to check for access to the evaporator coil and fan).
