    Re: clicking whirlpool fridge freezer

    had the same problem told by whirlpool engineer need new circuit boards at a cost of £200.
    I have today replaced the 4 capacitors in a row on the rear board, it has fixed the ice machine and the thumping noise when i used the water dispenser, unfortuately there is still a clicking noise have issued new topic to find out if i need to replace the capacitor on its own will let you know what the outcome is. Its worth a try doing this as replacing the capacitors were very easy, needed a soldering iron to melt solder and pull out existing capacitor when solder is hot, reheat the solder and push in new capacitor. Cost of capacitors £20 alot cheaper than new circuit boards. Its a gamble but I think its worth the try, if all fails for me then a new fridge!!
