Re: Whirlpool American Fridge Freezer broken down – help!

Hi just a quick update….
I got Deans Ltd of Leeds (found them on this website) to come and have a look at my problem. They found that the evaporator was completely solid with ice. They defrosted the freezer and everything is ok now. They checked the seals to see if they were the cause of the problem but said they were ok. It still does the clicking about once a day for a few minutes so I suppose that I might need to get the boards replaced at some point. They charged me £50 which I thought was reasonable.

Hi Gegsy,

That sounds like a great idea.
Can you buy the years parts and labour though and then claim on it straight away? Isn’t that a bit cheeky? 🙂

Just as an update — it’s stopped working now.

The display now looks correct and it’s stopped making any noises but it’s just a large cooler box instead of a fridge/freezer. 🙁

Re: Whirlpool American Fridge Freezer broken down – help!

Hi,

I have a Whirlpool Fridge Freezer and it makes a clicking sound for a few minutes every hour or so. It has been doing this for the last year (or even longer).

The water dispenser also clicks loudly and, if I look at the back of the machine whilst water is being dispensed I can see the water pipe jerking about.

Tonight the freezer temperature display has decided to display — instead of the usual 18*C and was beeping loudly for over an hour (thankfully it has stopped now). As yet I haven’t noticed any drop intemperature and the fridge side seems to working fine.

The model is a S20D RSS33-A/G
with service numbers of 8586 158 15020 and 11 0419 026558

Can anyone shed any light on my problems?
Thanks.
