Pavel for Model Number Kenmore 795.79993510 Both the fridge and freezer are not cooling enough. I opened the back of the freezer and found ice on the Evaporator Assembly. I thought that the problem may be in the Defrost Control Assembly, but the compressor is running non-stop and it is very hot (my understanding is that it should be off during the defrost cycle). I checked the Defrost Control Assembly (0 ohm on red, 14.5k ohms on orange) and both Heaters around the Evaporator Assembly (66 and 155 ohms). How can I diagnose what is the issue here? Is the culprit the main control board? Thank you.
Answer Hello Pavel, the compressor is controlled by an inverter circuit, it and the defrost circuit are part of the main control board. This ref has dual evap coils, a defrost problem on one will not affect the other. Likely the ref is running a lot to try to cool each compartment to the correct set temp. This sounds like a sealed system problem rather than a control board problem. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Tuesday, September 8, 2020
