Hi i have a problem with the freezer coils freezing over with ice, the code flashes 3 but i just watched your video about the heater wrap around the freezer being replaced, the freezer drain is always frozen solid and wont drain without a lot of effort on my part to make sure it is clear, now the fridge side is getting a pool of water under the bottom drawer. looking forward to hearing from you, thanks for such a great site to come to for help!!! Ken
P.S. it is my understanding that the code means it is a sensor for the heater. ???

I Have a Whirlpool Gold French Door Refrigerator
M/N:GX5FHDXVB03 S/N:K02386807 purchased on 6/21/2010.
-The Vertical Mullion Rail (Flipper Mullion) is very warm or even hot to the touch.
-The freezer, set on the warmest setting is too cold.
-The refrigerator is not cold enough.
-After the internal controls for the refrigerator and the freezer are both set to off, the unit continues to sound like it is running. This stops only when it is unplugged.
How should I proceed?

My Kenmore dishwasher shut off in wash cycle with the bottom full of water and the electronic controller will not illuminate. There is power to the unit and no wires are loose.

Something seems bound up. The motor is making an electrical hum noise and it’s pulling alot of current (my lights are dimming). A self reseting circuit breaker soon trips after about 15 seconds of this. I flipped the unit over and the big pully would only turn in one direction. After a few rotations, it seemed free and turned in both directions. I flipped the unit back upright and plugged it in, but it still would not spin. Should I be able to spin the drum by hand? It will not turn either direction now. Any ideas what it is?

Fridgidaire (electrolux) affinity.
Error E66

Hi there and thanks for making the youtube video. I have the dryer open and the drum out. I have a multimeter but to be honest it is one of those tools I don’t really know how to use. What setting do I put it on to test the doohickeys? What am I looking for on the multimeter to determine if its bad or good?
After writing the first question on the youtube comment section I set it it the 20ohms and get a reading of 1.1 and 1.4.
Also when I took the dryer apart there was a lot of lint, coins and some other misc debris in the bottom of the dryer. Is this normal or might I have a leak somewhere?

I have similar Kenmore. Ref part started freezing food, then a few days later I saw water on ref shelves. Long story short, removed ice maker, removed back panel of freezer (may have to defrost ice a bit to free it), and then saw ice buildup in drain tray and over drain tube. Removed back of refrig to see drip pan. Then in the freezer part, used hair drier and poured hot water on the ice to melt it. Soaked water run off with towel. Continued until water flowed down drain tube. Checked in the drain pan to see the water.

THEN from what I saw on another video, added an 18 gauge cooper wire apox 12″ long to the lower heating element. There are two elements, one on top of the cooling fans and one on the bottom. These heat up during the defrost cycle to melt ice. Water drips into the drain tray and down the drain tube. Careful when working around the fans, they bend easily and cut fingers even easier.

Looped one end of wire on the left side of the lower defrost element Then looped the other end on the right side of the lower element while shaping the cooper wire down to but not touching the drain tray (C shape). This should put heat right over the drain tray and tube to help melt any ice buildup.

ALSO from what I read about one of the causes of this ice build up in the freezer, warm moist air rises in the drip tube, meats the cold freezer air, and the moisture freezes up in the drain tube causing the ice dam. So I purchased two small elbow tubes and a worm clamp. Using pipe tape, connected the two elbows into a U shape and added them to the bottom of the drip tube. Use pipe tape and clamp to secure to the bottom of the tube. When water drips from the freezer, some of it stays in the U and prevents warm moist air from rising to the heater. Similar to the U shape in plumbing to keep sewer gases out of the house. QED so far.

Unit will only start in diagnostic mode. When I first start diagnostic mode, all lights are green. The unit Will get a few minutes in to diagnostic mode and dies, no lights and the unit will not respond. It will only respond trying to run diagnostic mode, always get the same result, it dies and is unresponsive.

I checked to see if the chopper blade was jammed, it was not. I replaced the control board, that did not fix the issue.

Any ideas. Could it be the thermal fuse? Would diagnostic mode still try and work if the thermal fuse is bad?

I tried working through the service manual attached to the inside of the kickplate but there wasn’t anything in the troubleshooting that referenced what to look for when the unit died during the diagnostic mode.

I assume that once the unit got to somewhere in diagnostic mode that wasn’t working properly it shut down…

Any ideas or feedback would be appreciated.

I own a Maytag refrigerator Model MFI2269VEW, 2 years old. The icemaker is not making ice but water is coming through the dispenser. Since water is coming through the dispenser would it be the ice maker itself or something else? It is connected to a reverse osmosis system and the refrigerator filter is still in place. I turned the on/off switch off, then on, and the arm did work and reset but I still didn’t hear water fill icemaker mold. My wife and I haven’t used the icemaker that much the last few months.

Thanks

My Crosley fridge is accumulating quite a bit of water inside. I don’t think it’s condensation from it not cooling, it seems cold enough, and I didn’t spill anything. Why would there be so much? Is it something I can fix? My husband thinks it quit cooling at some point and defrosted but it seems ok right now.

Our range is beeping non-stop and flashing the aforementioned error code. From what I could find online, this is a shorted keypad. So what part do I need and is there a video that could show me how? I really don’t want to have to get a new range and am hoping this won’t be too difficult.

Our dryer isn’t heating up. My husband checked the coils because I heard that was a typical repair, but they are fine and working. What else can we check?

My washer isn’t spinning out or draining. I checked the lid switch from a video I found but that seems fine. I did do a load of rugs last and am wondering if maybe something got stuck in the pump? Thanks in advance for any help on this!

Maytag washer starts spinning clockwise during the agitation cycle then overflows.
During the agitation cycle the tub goes from the small jerks into a fast clockwise spin.

hi I am a tech. a tech before me had changed the board in this unit. problem was that the unit stays in defrost way to long melting the food in the freezer.new board didn’t fix it. when I looked at it I noticed that the condenser fan was bad, I replaced it, did not solve the problem. I then replaced the evaporator thermistor, did not solve the problem. I watched a video by a ge tech who said if the fan shorts out it might take out the board, he said the way to tell is by checking the 2 resistors under j2 connector. I checked and there not burnt. I then saw a # of poasts where many people are having the same issues, they have replaced all thermistors, board, defrost stat, and still have the issue. I know that if the evap thermistor fails to shut the defrost off then the board should override it and shut it down. do you think their is a problem with these boards?. btw when the stat does open . compressor and both fans come on and it cools fine. this one has me stumped. any ideas?

Fan not blowing in either compartment. Pushed the test button, all led lights lit up on display, fan was blowing in both compartments. Fridge does hum, but after the test, a clicking noise from compressor area, then nothing.

I have this gass stove , kitchenAid Model # KGRI801PBS00.
Costumer complaint: make short circuit , tripeed braker (or blow out braker) at braker box , then He restore power and blower motor kept running all the time ( non stop).
I take off the touch panel with the control box behind the touch panel and restore power blower fan motor kept running , so, I hit with my screw driver the relay board , the one is located behind the surface and get the motor stop .
But when , I put back the touch pad with the control is at back the touch panel and press the bake , the braker at braker box when off again (braker tripped).
another interesting question that I have is: I take away the cables going to the motor and check those cables for ground it was grounded , when the plug is inserted in the wall outlet, but if , I take away the plug from the wall outlet , now is not grounded is that ok?.
Now I , think I have problems with one of the board ,but I don’t know , which control board or even if the touch panel .
How I will determine or probe each one of this control or touch panel. thank for your help, wating for your answer, my email address is : armandoappliances@gmail.com , or also I have this other one : armgua@gmail.com. I am fan of yours wabesite and also I was refered to you, by marcone appliance which , we have accesd I belive as a premium till December 31.
