Remove the food in the freezer , to a level , where you can remove the 2 screws holding the inside rear freezer panel , and remove the panel . At the bottom of the coils , is the defrost heater ( black rod piece ) . On the left AND right sides of the coils , down by the heater , check to see if the freezer liner is melted , due to the heat of the heater . This is a common problem for Maytag and Jen Air refrigerators , for the plastic to get hot . If this is so , then get 2 pieces of sheet metal , 4 " X 8 " , and slide in on both sides of the coils , to protect the liner permanently . If the liner sticks out , use a hair dryer to try and smooth out the plastic , to make it possible for the sheet metal to be slid into place .
On mine , I found 2 pieces of a lower dishwasher kick plate , and slid into place .

Has an awful smell even after cleaning frige

Sometimes putting a couple of open boxes of baking soda in the fridge and freezer will help get rid of the smell. You can also scrub the interior with a solution of water and borax. If you can stand the smell of vinegar, cleaning with that will help as well..

Unit is a Jenn-air JRSD209T. Two problems. When water runs to fill the ice maker it runs down into the ice shoot leaving you with a cup of water with your ice. Second problem. Witnessed a red glow...

Hello,
For your first problem i need a bit of a clarification. Is what your saying,when you dispense ice through the door some water also comes out of the dispenser??

For the glow that is perfectly normal,what your seeing is the glow of the defrost heater melting off the biult up frost. If it did not come on and melt the frost the refrig would not be cooling.The term"FROST FREE" is a bit misleading. Their is automatic defrost refrigerators such as the one you have, and the manul defrost that you need to defrost manually every month.

Burning smell behind refregratot. After fan trggered there is burning smell like rubber burning.

First , clean the coils under the front of the refrig , with a vac . Then pull the refrig out and remove the back panel and check that the fan there in working . If not , remove any obstruction or replace the motor ( pt # 4387244 ) . If the fan IS working , then replace the overload/relay , which is plugged onto the side of the compressor ( pt # 8201786 (comes with instructions )) . Both are easily replaceable and will save you hundreds in repair costs . Note : Dirty condensor coils ( bottom front ) can cause the overload/relay to go out .

Jenn Air JRSD209T

This is just anecdotal here, but one repair guy who came out and thawed a frozen line into the icemaker told us the fridge required near-full line pressure 90- or 70- or whatever that is, in order for the ice maker to work. This was a licensed repair guy. We were feeding it with an RO, which only pumped it in at 17 or 20 psi (or whatever the unit is) which he informed us was inadequate. However, after he thawed things out and we changed out the inline carbon filter in the fridge, everything was hunky dory for a couple of years. About a year back, the icemaking stopped, and changing out the carbon filters in the fridge AND in the RO system did the trick.

Now we have a different problem. Things aren't getting or staying cold, especially the fridge. I opened the housing in the back of the fridge, defrosted the extensive ice accumulated around the refridgerant coils, and everything ran great for a couple of days. Now we're back in the global warming pattern: steadily rising temperatures and thawing. I'm not feeling too happy about Jenn-Air these days.

Water filter

are you looking for a replacement filter for your refrig or looking to locate its whereabouts in refrig???? 11 years ago its possible, sorry very probable that a water filter did not come equipped with refrigs.if so it would be in top right corner mounted on ceiling insider refrig.

If you have a cold enough temp in the icemaker a heater should then kick in to warm the plate and a motor then turns and drives the ice out. The ice maker modules can be repaired, but the checks need to be carried out by fridge guys. Alternatively you can replace the whole module but this can vary in cost quite dramatically. Hope this has been of some help.
