    Re: Whirlpool American Fridge Freezer broken down – help!

    Thank you for your reply, I have now tested and without the element plugged in your right, the compressor doesnt run but also the electrics don’t trip, so im guessing im going to have to gamble on it being one of those required and get one ordered and hope the thing works again.

    Re: Whirlpool American Fridge Freezer broken down – help!

    I realise this is an old Thread, but I could really do with some help, I have read most of the pages and not sure what the problem is still.

    Our S20C FWW20-A/G (8586 155 15001 && 11 0419 000566) has started to trip out the household mains RCD, from reading through all of the information I can find we can only assume its either the Heater element or the compressor, now last year the boards were repaired and have worked faultlessly for the last 12 months or so, and now its broken.

    I have measured the continuity of the defrost heater in place, 85.6 ohms between the two plugs of the heater element, and no continuity to ground, the cooler elements next to it have 0 ohms to ground though (not sure if this is as should be)

    Im really not sure what has gone wrong with this, could do with it working as were having to buy milk and fridge perishables day to day at the minute, and dont have the spare money to replace it for a couple of months as this is our quietest time of the year in our business..

    Re: Whirlpool AFB126 freezer needs a few kicks a day…

    Hi,

    Sorry to resurrect a old post.. Especially with my first post on here, I’ve just been given one of these as it’s uneconomical for my parents to repair, but I’m struggling to find the caps and was wondering if any traders on here can supply them?
