We have a Amana refrigerator Model # SXD22SW2 and
Removing a water filter from the base grill of your Amana brand
refrigerator:
Removing and replacing a water
filter - base grill location
Filters situated in the base grill (below the freezer compartment) of
Whirlpool-built side-by-side refrigerators are relatively simple to replace.
Follow these two steps:
- Grasp the filter's end and make a one-quarter turn to the left.
- Pull the filter straight out.
To replace with a new filter, repeat these two steps in the opposite order,
making sure to first remove the red cap from the filter. Proceed by pushing the
filter straight into the slot, and then giving it a one quarter turn to the
right.
Note: Replacing this type of filter is quick - there is no need to
unplug your refrigerator when replacing it. Also, this filter should be replaced
every six months.

- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.

No power to Amana ice and water dispenser. Rest of refer runs fine.
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.

DOESNT DEFROST AND THE FRIDGE SIDE NOT COLD
YOU CAN MANUALLY DEFROST THIS AND GET IT GOING UNTIL YOU GET IT REPAIRED. UNPLUG REFRIGERATOR AND LEAVE FREEZER DOOR OPEN FOR 12 HOURS OR MORE. OR UNPLUG REFRIGERATOR, TAKE THE LOWER PANEL OFF INSIDE FREEZER AND DEFROST WITH A HAIR DRYER. THIS SHOULD TAKE ABOUT 45 MINUTES. THE MOST COMMON REPAIR IS THE DEFROST THERMOSTAT. YOU PROBABLY HAVE A BAD ADAPTIVE DEFROST BOARD.

I just got my whirlpool fridge and I'm having the exact same problem! The blue cap appears stuck and I'm afraid I'll break it if I force it with a tool. Please post a solution if you get one - I'll do the same. Thanks.

Remove anything in the unit that could spill or tip over. Raise the front leveling legs to allow unit to roll. Slide the unit out from the wall. Place something between the refrigerator and the wall to protect surfaces. ***Make sure you have someone to assist with this next part.
