Hi Guys,
Thanks for any suggestions but it looks like it was all in vain!
Have given in – I`m going to scrap the fride/freezer as its just not worth the effort or expense! Thought i could of saved it, an done my bit for the environment but whirlpool seem to think differently.
I was going to call an whirlpool engineer out for £79.99, after speaking to them on the phone they suggested a 12 month plan at £149 parts and labour(money back if they cant fix it) untill i went to book it. It increased to £199 because parts for my f/f cost more apparently!
With the money and time i have spent without a f/f its time to say goodbye to that big hunk of WHIRLPOOL piece of crap warm cupboard in the corner!
Whirlpool sucks – i certainly won`t be buying another crappy over priced (PRODUCT,PARTS AND LABOUR) whirlpool again!
Hope this post puts off anybody from buying or owning whirlppol again!

See ya!Re: Whirlpool american fridge freezer
Hi Again,
Sorry my last message was little scrambled and didnt make my question clear 😳 .
What i meant to ask was – If remove the bimetal from the unit will it come out defrost or is there anyway of testing the bimetal?
I did check out the price of these – £46 plus £4 P&P, £50 is a lot to spend on a maybe.
I have also discoverd theres a thermo cut out switch and starter relay fro the compressor, cant find a part number or listed in any online shops. Anybody got any ideas 💡
Again many thanks for all replies

Hi again,
Ok guys I’ve been busy taking the fridge freezer to peices – located the bi-metal. Is this a themostat to control the heating element – does it work like trace heating? can i run the f/f without the bi-metal (will this bypass the defrost)?
Sorry if it sounds a little garbbled – but my missus is breathing down my neck cos the kitchen looks an edtion of scrapheap challange!
Many thanks again for any replys 😉

Hi Again,
Many thanks for the reply!
Had already orderd the front board, it arrived today. Replaced both boards now, but still no cold beers 🙁 humph!
The board go though a series of clicks when first switched on – the fan inside the freezer comes on and then compressor fan comes on.
I dont think the compressor is kicking in – is there any easy way of checking its working ok?Re: Whirlpool American Fridge Freezer broken down – help!
I have a whirlpool american fridge freezer (without icebox) – its around 2 years old and is a S20DRSS10-A/G model serial no 858615415010. The mains power was interrupted last week and there was a CF error. After doing a bit of digging around, I realised that I would need a new rear PCB board, which I bought from Whirlpool. That was fitted today, but the damn thing still isn’t working . The error message has gone away and the motor etc seems to be kicking in, but it is blowing warm air in both the freezer and the fridge. Basically the unit is now a warm cupboard! Help!! What else is wrong???
Thank you for any help
