Re: Whirlpool American Fridge Freezer broken down – help!

Hi All!

I woke this morning with the dreaded “chattering of a relay”, also lost half the contents of the freezer! 😥 Reading through this thread, and in particular Dufferuk’s contribution i tried swapping the two .22 uf caps around……No Avail! 👿

So after checking the capacitors i noticed that the suspect one (C7) was low in value (.17 uf), following the curcuit through, this is fed via C27 (the one in the middle .1 uf). On checking this component i found it was slightly out of tolerance, so i changed C5 C6 C7 C8 C26 C27 and C28 to be on the safe side.

I’m glad to say that the fridge and freezer are now dropping temperature, and seems to be behaving itself! 😀 😀 😀 😀

I hope this is of some help.

Regards.
Dave.
