Re: Whirlpool American Fridge Freezer broken down – help!

Looks like we have the same problem with our Admiral FF. Get the click-click noise from the water dispenser and the fridge isnt cooling at all now. We’ve recently has the defrost element (and 2 other parts replaced) due to a different problem – or is it related??? Who knows/

Service number is 8595 105 15000 / 11 0738 001758. Can someone advise if we need to replace both front and rear boards or just one of them.

We are also experiencing the problem with the fridge not staying cold. It has gradually increased in temperature over the past few days.

Last night we removed the filter type thing from the fridge side – its a unit at the top left corner inside the fridge – and the temperature decreased to the correct level. I have now put the unit back in but not fully in so that cold air can pass through from the freezer to the fridge.

Could a faulty board be responsible for this?

I will be more than happy to replace the capacitors (C1,C5,C6,C7,C8,C26,C27,C28) as described in this topic but just wanted to make sure first.

Thanks

Patsy

Update : ordered the capacitors on Tuesday, received them Wednesday and just need to get round to soldering them onto the boards – :hmm: :hmm:
