Repair Help

My top oven will not heat. When I put it on self clean the top burner inside the oven lights up and then begins the self clean. However when I go to heat something up on say 400 degrees, it does nothing…..very strange what is going on? It is obviously getting gas, but when I go to bake with the top oven it will not work.

Now the bottom oven is working, but we rarely have used it. Is this a flaw with Kitchenaid. The oven is only about 2 years old.
Thanks for the help!

My Kenmore elite side by side compressor has been running all the time. The door seals appear to be ok and I cleaned out the condenser coil. The unit is not going into a defrost mode. Is there anything you guys think may be causing the problem. George

Hello,
Thank you guys for having this web page. I had a large power spike that has played hell with my house. The surge melted my cable for Internet and cable, the dryer isn’t getting hot, the dishwasher has no power and the fridge isn’t getting cold. I contacted whirlpool about a relay switch and this model does not have one. The lights work on the fridge, it blows out semi cold air. The compressor is cool to the touch and everything works minus cooling (you know the important part) I was wondering if you guys had any ideas or videos similar to this unit to test the compressor.

The dishwasher may tag model number is mdbh969aws2 doesn’t come on, I am sure the circuit board is fried but I don’t even know how to get to that. Please help!

Returned from vacation, fridg had been unplugged. Plugged back in. Ice maker did not make ice . turned icemaker off(switch on it) turned back on 8 hrs later. Checked 8 hrs later. It made 2-3 batches ice. Maybe smaller cubes. Then it made no more. Removed ice maker re: your video(thanks). There were 3-4 of the water recepticles at the back of the mold that had frozen cubes in them, 1/2 to 1/4 size, rest were dry. I cleaned them out, reinstalled ice maker, turned it on , waited 12-14 hrs, checked, no ice. Filler tube not iced or blocked. I replaced water filter in refrig. before anything else. Water supply is from a reverse osmosis, and is a small line. Also I have a soft water system(salt type) that supplies water to the house. note: I do get water from the dispenser in refrig. door. Is there a way to use keypad to “cycle” ice maker for diagnosis? Do you think I should use an alternate supply line( copper, bigger to the refrig.? I don’t want to start throwing parts at this thing until I know what’s wrong. Thanks, Ron

My whirlpool fridge has lately been leaking about half a cup of water by the front left side. Is this a drain problem? If so, do you have replacement part for this model?
Thanks

My fridge started a double beeping noise. At the same time the freezer and refg temps rose. I cleaned the coils in front bottom and fan by compressor. The temps are running @ 14* in freezer and 44* on refg. I tried turning off the cooling system and restarted after 2 minutes but no change in temps. I watched your video on changing the compressor kick starter. Not sure what to do. The fridge is 7 – 8 years old. Can you give me some advise?
Thanks, Lynn

Been having a problem that the freezer and refer not reaching set temps. This morning when it was quiet I could hear the fan motor cycling. Run for 10 seconds then off for 1 or 2 seconds and then back on again over and over.

where do I find a wire diagram or a video that shows the wire connections to the thermostat and cut offsensors on a Kenmore elite dryer model 11063012101.

Having troubles getting my kitchen aid dishwasher to start model number KUD01ILBL6 I rebooted it by pushing scrub and energy button x5 alternating waiting and then push cancel button 1 x and no success. Is this the correct rebooting technique for this dishwasher, and what else can I do????

I have a maytag side by side fridge with ice maker and water dispenser in the door that worked perfect. Until I removed the doors to transport it to another location. When I placed the doors back on I have no water or ice dispenser. it still makes ice. there is power going to the door panel because the lights are on. When you push the button for ice nothing happens the auger motor does not turn or the trap door for the ice does not open. the same when you push the button for the water nothing happens. I check for power going to the switch. I have power at the switch and the power goes to the mother board but does not go any father then that. is it possiable that the board burnt out just like that. any help you can give me would be appricated thank you

Thanks for the great video on fixing the leaking water in the may tag refrigerator. Prior to seeing your video I removed the rear panel looking for a blockage in the drain. I removed the black nipple and found a small white rubber piece inside. I’ve removed it but was wondering if I should put it back? Thanks again for the video!

My front load washer had been working properly, suddenly it stopped working at the beginning of a load. When I press any buttom it does not make anything. When I turn the knob, the little screen on the washer only shows parts of numbers. I tried to get the error code but it does not respond either. Thanks

The bottom freezer compartment has been accumulating ice on compartment floor. Water frequently pools on the kitchen floor. After watching your video, I removed the back panel and inspected the duck bill foot valve (grommet). It was dry. No accumulated gunk inside. The drain pan designed to catch drain water from the drain tube w/ grommet was also dry. Did not look like water had been there for a long time if ever. The refrigerator is just over three years old. This problem has been with us for at least a year. It appears there is a stoppage in the drain tube above the grommet. Any suggestions?
Thank you

I can’t get my washer to spin and I keep hearing a clicking sound. I’ve turned it on its side and took off the shield, the belt and motor turn freely by hand. After watching one of your videos, I’m thinking I need the shift actuator part # W10006355 but wanted to see what you think before I purchased it. The washer appears to have a small leak, the actuator looks a little rusty.

I have been dealing with the issue of the refrigerator freezing over and the fan being covered in ice for almost 5 years. I have taken the fridge apart, defrosted it and put it back together. This now happenes every 3 months and it’s very frustrating. One repair man installed a piece that Samsung said repairs the issue, bit that did not work. I saw your video and was wondering if replacing the evaporator defrost system actually worked and if so, how long has it been since it was replaced? Is this a long term solution, how much success have people had with it?

I have been wrestling with this for the past two days – ever since my wife noticed that everything in the fridge was frozen. This is a Samsung unit with the fridge on top and the freezer on the bottom. The freezer is working just fine and the freezer display agrees with a separate freezer thermometer I put inside the freezer. The fridge side, however, is set at 38*, but the internal thermometer says it’s about 12* in there!

I downloaded the service manual for this model fridge, but it is rather poorly written. I checked for trouble codes, but I didn’t have anything that matched what was in the service manual. On start up my display will completely light up for a second or two, then go dark and then a number “3” will pop up of the refrigerator side of the display. Then the display will show the actual temperatures of the freezer and fridge before going back to displaying the selected temperature settings.

A quick online search indicates a bad thermistor in the refrigerator section. I am a little wary because on start up, the fridge displays actual temperature quite accurately. Some thermometer inside the fridge is working. I get that a thermistor is not a thermometer and that if the thermistor is responsible for making the fridge self-defrost, then I guess it would make sense.

I suspect that the fridge evaporator is completely iced over. In an effort to remedy this, I went into the “forced operation” mode and selected fridge defrost. I’m currently listening to my bridge beep constantly as I wait to see if this does anything.

Food safety is something that I really obsess about and getting this fridge back to normal as quickly as possible is a huge priority for me.

Any help you can offer is greatly appreciated!

I went trough the diagnostic mode and ran a few tests. In the diagnostic mode it starts up normally, fills with water, empties water and spins normally at a slow/medium speed. The error codes that show are F1 E2 which from what I have read is a problem with the Drive motor or Main electronic control board. When I go to calibrate it starts to spin for a split second then it comes to sudden stop as if it gets stuck and the lid lock light starts to blink. This all started because when we try to run the washing machine and it would stay in sensing mode with the lid lock flashing while making a loud humming noise. I eventually smelled an electrical burning smell after leaving it in sensing for several minutes. After attempting this again I am noticing that after it goes through the sensing mode a couple of times and it wants to start up but it looks like it gets stuck because it comes to a sudden stop just like it does when its trying to calibrate.

Could this be the drive motor or main electronic control board?

used allen wrench – unit still humming. Advice?
