Checking your picture again I can see the black indication mark on it, so it is an evaporator coil sensor, but buying that instead of the part number I gave you has made extra work for you.
To be honest I am not sure, I can only give part numbers for the exact same Miele model as produced by Liebherr with Liebherr part numbers, check to see if the jack plug is coloured with a black mark, as they are all colour coded on the jack plug and again on the sensor wire near the bulb end, from what I see that you have looks like the old original sensor that will need feeding up to the PCB in the facia panel, hence why newer versions have a joining kit to speed up and ease changing of the sensors and we only need to carry the kits on the van to do a variety of units providing they are resistance compatible.
Nope, I spent ages explaining where it is located and how to replace it in an earlier post, I wonder why I bother doing this for free anymore.
No its a 9590214 you require, you need the correct part as the resistance is set for the PCB to recognize the temperature correctly, don’t go cheap, buy the right one or your unit will not run correctly.
Yes,
it probably comes as a kit, locate and pull out old sensor from bottom of the coil, cut off a length of the old sensor and using a length of the new sensor ( cut to size about 6 inches longer than the length you cut the old one, join back up with the kit. before you do any cutting check the joining kit as they did two versions, one with an insulated box and 2 crimps and a screw together version, the screwed together version needs to be located outside the fridge/freezer behind the black condenser plate, the insulated/ crimp version can be left inside the freezer neatly located with the other cables.
You will have to remove the housing around the coil to get the sensor out, unscrew and remove the small square thermal fuse in the polystyrene, gently lift up the evaporator coil and rest it by inserting one of the glass shelfs so you can now see the back of the coil assembly, cut the tape on both sides and you will find a couple of pressed in metal lugs, gently ease these out and the cover will come off exposing the coil for sensor removal, reassemble in reverse. TAKE CARE when lifting or moving the coil as it is connected to delicate aluminum pipes.Hi, I cannot find an index 25D-165, but two versions of a KF7542SN are listed on index’s 25A-165 and 26C-165, both have the same freezer evaporator sensor part number 9590214 a replacement for the original 6942092 sensor, priced at around £50.00 plus VAT and any carriage.
Yes Freezer evaporator sensor, but I will need your index number, found just after the model number to identify parts used on that years production.
Hi Paul, it looks like either a weak compressor or a loss of refrigerant is preventing proper freezing, only an Engineer will be able to confirm this with a site callout.
Hi Paul, there are certain conditions for the fan to operate, the coil sensor must be reading -25c, or 2c below air sensor in normal operation, the compressor must be running and the door closed, all other conditions fan is off.
If you have access to the service mode as stated, go to the E menu and find out what the sensor is reading, you are looking for program r4 this will flash alternately with the temperature it is reading, a temperature reading should also be taken of the coil at the bottom centre to confirm it is getting to -25 or below with a digital probe thermometer to compare actual reading and what sensor is reading.
So if it is around or below -25c on thermometer, and sensor 4 in service menu has a higher reading, replace sensor 6942809, there is not stock of this part at present at Liebherr, so try this site they may have one in stock. Tony.Can you supply the index numbers and service numbers from your rating plate as without this I cannot identify your exact model, despite knowing part of your model, there are loads of variations of the GN 1066
New fridges and freezers run on enviromently friendly refrigerant R600a, a common complaint is the circulation noise generated from this gas, it varies from gurgling, squeaking and even breaking wind sounds, once you understand the principles of refrigeration in how the refrigerant changes state within the pipework to achieve cooling by converting from a gas to a liquid and back again to a gas, and in that process the gas boils off in the system collecting the heat from inside the fridge/freezer thus reducing the temperature, the noise is normal and nothing to be concerned about.
Hi, The sensor you fitted ( 6942626 ) is not listed for your unit on the exploded parts diagram, the two sensors in the freezer are listed as 9590142 but now replaced by 9590206, you have an air sensor clipped to the rear cover, this turns the compressor off along with the air sensor in fridge, the coil sensor ends the defrost and enables the fan to come on once the coil is at temperature.
Ok, the part number is on the inverter,it is the 6145482-00 number, this is also a Liebherr recognized part number, they list part 6145482-00 as an inverter for the compressor VES 2456 97 F00, these type of parts are not generally supplied direct to customers other than service providers, however you may be able to buy it on this sites spares section.
