Greg for Model Number LFFH21F7HWJ Replaced control panel in the door and now fan and lights come on. Got E8 code for thermistor - removed and replaced. Unit runs but does not get cold? Next steps? Now code is OFF. Thinking some kind of capacitor? Frustrating.
Answer Hello Greg, thank you for contacting APP, If the fan in the unit is running but the compressor is not then it is likely that either the Run Capacitor, the Controller/Start Device 216954218, or the Compressor 5304475098 has failed. If you are comfortable checking live voltage with a multimeter I would take a reading from the Yellow wire to the White wire at the compressor to see if you have about 120 volts AC when the fan inside the unit is running. If this voltage is present one of those components has failed. If there is no voltage present and the fan is running then there is possibly an internal wiring issue. If the fan and compressor are not running and there is no voltage then there is a control, thermistor, or wiring issue. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Monday, July 29, 2024
