I owm a Whilpool model # ed5hhgxtq00, and am having trouble with it making ice, and now keeping my food frozen, everything thaws out, then refreezes in a cycle it seems, i need to know which part i can replace to resolve the issue, or if perhaps i have some kind of freeze builup on the coils.
Either defrost timer or Refrigerator thermostat, both located in the ceiling of the refrigerator, can give you long enough off times to actually cause thawing and then refreezing. Feel the rear wall of the freezer, half way down to see if a layer of frost has formed on it. This can indicate a problem in the defrost system which has three components.
The only way to be sure which of the two components is the cause would be to catch it in the thawing phase (not running). Tapping hard on the refrigerator temperature control knob can make it come on if it is the source of your problem. Good Luck
Hi,
Many times a freezer and/or refrigerator do not work right because of a dirty condenser coil...there are also many other things that can go wrong.
If you are hearing a clicking or buzzing then check out the last two tips.
If your refrigerator is running but warm, then...
Check out these tips that I wrote about that... it is a great place to start trouble shooting your unit...and something that you can do rather then calling a repair person to do a simple thing for you...
