Al for Model Number RT21LMXKQ06 Bought and installed a timer I bought from your site. Worked fine for awhile then started the problem again. Found the cold control was sticking and replaced it. It worked fine again for awhile. No more problem with heating up between cycles but now I have a new problem. A few days ago the defrost and compressor kicked on at the same time, sounded like a war going on in there, the refrigerator quit and didn't run for about ah hour. Then started and ran fine for a couple of more days. Last night it did it again and I unplugged it. I am sure it was defrosting as it ran as water ran into the catch pan under the refrigerator and as I said it was really loud. Could there be a loose wire somewhere that grounds out from time to time? Does this unit have a control board that is going bad? This morning I turned it on and it was in defrost mode.The freezer was at 60deg and I could hear the element heating up. Unplugged it again and I am waiting for your response.
Answer Hello Al, Based on the information provided, the defrost timer WP2314156 would be the only part that would cause the defrost and compressor to run at the same time. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Tuesday, November 13, 2012
