Re: Whirlpool Dripping Drink Dispenser Help Req

Thanks Bob
I will have a look at that and try and find the part number.
I had just wondered if there was any other kind of valve / switch etc closer to the actual point of the dispenser at the front which held the water back / cut it off after the paddle springs back when the glass is removed ?
Cheers I will post if that fixes the problem

I echo the post by Leonips , brilliant site and once again has come to my rescue.
Leonips I had the same problem as you fridge side not cooling, thanks for posting the instructions, I followed them quite easily and it was exactly as you said, small part of the slide broken off and retained inside / under the motor. Superglue to the rescue and this morning fridge is at a nice 5 degrees and it did not cost me anything other than a little effort , brilliant thank you. Lets hope the slide does not snap again!

Re: Whirlpool American Fridge Freezer broken down – help!

Hi all

Update- John has done the business for me and I am really pleased with the results. Both boards needed the caps changing as just doing the rear did not fix the freezer and ice making problems.

I have seen both parts for myself and although the yellow Bits Box are a neat size and will probably do the job for you there may still be a question of reliability. my ethos is to fit something and then be able to forget it, I aim to get things fixed right the first time.
The RS parts are bigger and it does need some tweaking and a steady hand but they are really robust and should not need changing again.

Once again thanks to all who helped with advice and especially to John Broderick.
Regards
Zaf

Was this easy to do? I am a complete novice as far soldering goes or do these things just plug in like lego. I have the same model as you.
Thanks

@Zaf – Yes, it was easy enough to do but then although I am far from an expert, I am comfortable using a soldering iron and desoldering pump. If in doubt, just take the board to a local TV/Electronics repair shop and have them do the job for you. I’m sure you’ll find one locally to you and if you talk to them in advance then they should be able to do it while you wait – it’s a 10 min job and they shouldn’t really be charging more than a tenner or so.

Thanks again Mark and thanks to Broddersbaldrick John who has has come to my rescue as he is local to me. I will let all the users know if this solves my issues.
Regards to all

Remember: these are the ones that I used to repair my S20B RBB20-A/G; they may be different for your model but it is unlikely. From what I have read here, they are all the same.

Hope this helps.

Mark.
