Rob for Model Number 106-54206300 Freezer was not defrosting, and fridge was warm Had bad bi-metal, replaced it. Replaced control board. Defrost works now, but freezer and fridge are too cold now--milk is frozen solid. Based on what I've read here, it's the thermistor and/or diffuser. My question is, HOW do I test to see if the diffuser is opening or closing? I can't see in there. I need step by step instructions. THANKS!
Answer Hello Rob. 1. Unplug refrigerator or disconnect power. 2. Remove the mounting screw and wire channel from the top of the refrigerator compartment. 3. Remove the mounting screw and air baffle cover. 4. Locate the air chute in the top of the freezer compartment. NOTE: For models in which the ice maker is turned for ice in the door, pull the ice maker forward and remove it from the product. 5. Remove the air chute mounting screw and cover. Style 1 - Remove the air chute. Then remove the air scoop from the baffle. Style 2 - Remove the air chute from the baffle.6. Release the air baffle retaining clips from the freezer compartment and push the air baffle toward the refrigerator compartment. 7. Pull the air baffle assembly into the refrigerator compartment and disconnect the wiring connector from the baffle motor. 8. Reinstall the baffle assembly in the reverse order. 9. Plug in refrigerator or reconnect power. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Thursday, October 18, 2012
