Whirlpool Side by Side system blockage

[DentedPorsche]

Hiyas,
After having the evaperator in my own machine replaced it appears that the system is blocked. As I don’t do refrigeration (2nd line) I ‘m pretty well at a loss on this.
Anyways, anyone got any tips/ ideas on clearing this? I’ve got another refrigeration engineer on his way to see what he can do about it.
Refrigerant is R134a

Thanks.

The common blockage with R134a is within the delivery tube, as this is part of the evaparator, it should have already been eliminated. As part of the change would be filter replacement I fail to see why the blockage is remaining?

The condensor is easy to flush out on these so where your blockage lies must be in the “hot” pipe, which is unusal on this appliance.

Thanks for that Kevin.
It’s finally been sorted.
Engineer was here for 6 hours, seems 1st guy caused more problems than he cured.
3 lots of nitrogen through the system, 2 filters and 2 regasses later it’s working away fine.
