Admiral Fridge/Freezer – Freezer Not Working

[admiral2006]

I have an Admiral fridge freezer American style model number GC2224GEKW purchased December 2006 – Noticed the freezer was defrosting so i set the thermostat to 7 on both the fridge & freezer these are both normally at 3. The compressor did not start when i set it to 7 also it is not making any ice. The evaporator coils in the freezer have not iced up so i would say the heater is working ok – i also checked the vents coming in to the fridge part and there is cold air blowing through these, any one got any ideas

If the compressor doesn’t start then it won’t cool at all.

What you need to do is work out why that is.

This model is made by Maytag. The most likly fault is the

PCB/MODULE faulty.

Try opening the fridge door leave it open and see if the compressor runs OK.

If the compressor and compressor fan runs OK with the door open then it is a PCB/MODULE Fault.

When ordering a new pcb/module you need to quoite the JAZZ number on the module as you have to program the module.

The modules come with the instructions how to program but if it is not the same jazz number the module will not except the code on the fridge rating plate.

If the jazz number is not the same then it will not work without a default code this depends on the jazz board number

If you order a PCB and fit it and find the code on the fridge
will not program post the jazz number on the old pcb and the jazz number from the new pcb and I can give you the code you will need as the fridge will not work until programed.
