Paul for Model Number ED22QFX Had a couple of inches of water in our basement where our 2nd refrigerator is located. It is no longer cooling or freezing. The power is still working and the fan appears to be blowing but not really cool air. Have tried resetting it with cooler off switch and unplugging it but doesn't seem to work. I don't hear a clicking sound I've heard mentioned and the compressor doesn't seem hot. Unfortunately the water issue has happened several times but the refrigerator has alway made it through before. Any suggestions as to what may have been affected - compressor relay switch, compressor? Or where I should start looking? I'll try and deal with the basement flooding. Thanks for any suggestions Paul
Answer Hello Paul, The most likely victim of the flood is the start device 8201799. Of course, any electrical component submerged in water, (especially salt water), is susceptible to failure and should not be connected to the power supply and left unattended. I would suggest, if the flooding is a normal occurrence, to either unplug the unit to eliminate a fire hazard or stack a couple of pallets and put it up on them if this will get the unit above the flood level.
