John B September 16, 2014 for Model Number MSD2756GE Freezer defrosted and wont freeze back. Also the fridge wont stay cold, freezer stays at fridge temp and fridge stays warm. If you unplug it it resets, works for a week or two then same thing happens.
1 Answer John, You will want to check the evaporator coils to ensure that the coils are not impacted with ice. If they are then test the heater and the thermostat for continuity. If there is continuity then replace the defrost control board 61005988. Read More...
Rick September 13, 2014 for Model Number MZD2766GE Frig not cold. Freezer frosting over. Need possible parts to fix.
1 Answer Hello Rick. It sounds like you may have a defrost problem with the unit. Check and see if there is any frost build up on the evaporator coils in the freezer. If so, you will need to test the defrost heater and the defrost thermostat. They should read closed for continuity when cold. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. I will include a link at the end to assist you how to use the multi-meter if needed. If both parts are good, you will need to replace the control board. Once the problem is repaired, you will need to thaw out the ice on the coils before the unit will operate properly. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
Matt August 17, 2014 for Model Number ED5NHAXQ01 Hey, My side by side fridge will stay cool for abut 12 hrs. Then all of sudden it starts defrosting, and will get up to 55 degrees and melts all ice and is warm on fridge side too. If I shut off then plug back in starts working again. Thanks
1 Answer Hello Matt. You need to check and see if the cold control is bad or if the unit is sticking in defrost cycle. The contacts on the cold control should be closed if the unit is warm. If they are not, then the cold control is bad. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
Badams9349 August 13, 2014 for Model Number MSD2756GEW For the past few months the side by side Maytag has been making a, ZZZZZZZZ sound every few days. The sound is loud enough to be heard when the unit is all shut up. However there were no issues. When it would make this sound I would try to track it down to it location. It was coming from the upper right corner under the control plate. In the very corner. As I think I have learned tonight this is the area where the Adaptive Defrost control is. Today there is no ZZZZZZZ sound but the fresh food side is warm, freezer is cold. My thought is the ADC has failed, and the coils are frosting over. Thus the warm side. My question is does it seem that I am on the right track? Would it be normal for the board to make a ZZZZZZ sound as it was in its last months?
1 Answer Hello Badams9349. Yes, based on the information you provided, you will need to order and replace the ADC on the unit. Read More...

Steve July 11, 2014 for Model Number 363.9641714 My freezer keeps everything frozen but fridge part not cold @ all. No air flow to fridge. Frost forming in back of freezer's wall. Motor doesn't seem to be stopping for defrost cycle. Should I replace Defrost Heater, Defrost Thermostat or Defrost Control?
1 Answer Steve, It sounds like you may have a defrost problem with the unit. Check and see if there is any frost build up on the back wall of the freezer. If so, you will need to test the defrost heater and the defrost thermostat. They should read closed for continuity when cold. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3.

Carrie July 02, 2014 for Model Number msd2758gew refrigerator and freezer not staying cold. had tech out. compressor not working put in a bypass and compressor now coming on and freezer is cold. refrigerator staying at 62. tech had the panel off in the freezer compartment and said everything ok on that side. what is my most likely culprit?
1 Answer Carrie, If the tech checked everything in the freezer compartment, including the evaporator fan and motor WP61005339, then you'll need to remove the ceiling in the refrigerator compartment and check or replace the auto damper WP61005991 on the left side wall. The door of the damper could be "stuck" closed, or the diaphragm has failed and not allowing the cold air to enter the refrigerator compartment. Read More...
