Jonathan December 07, 2014 for Model Number FRT18LN5BW1 The wall outlet GFI trips after a single day of being plugged in. The fridge and freezer seems to be operating normally. Any ideas ? The appliance is in the garage and the only outlet available is GFI protected.
1 Answer Hello Jonathan. You can not runt he unit on a GFI. If it keeps tripping, you will need to replace the outlet with a standard outlet. Read More...
1 Answer Jon, You will want to check the fan motor to see if it is running in the freezer compartment. If not then test it for 120 vac. If there is voltage the motor is bad, if not then the defrost timer is not sending power to the motor. Also check the evaporator coils to make sure that they are not clogged with ice and if so then it would be a defrost issue which you would test the defrost thermostat and heater for continuity. If no continuity then replace part needed. If there is then the defrost timer is bad and would need to be replaced. Read More...
