Rubyjo2@Charter.Net July 03, 2014 I have a Panasonic Microwave model number nns933bf every thing work except the heating what could be the problem.
1 Answer Rubyjo, We do not have information for Panasonic microwaves but in general when a microwave is not working, the magnetron would need to be checked for resistance. The resistance value should be less than 1 ohm. The capacitor, diode and transformer would also need to be checked. Read More...
Jermaine G. May 20, 2014 for Model Number MZD2766GES Hello, I have frost building up on my evaporator coils and I suspected the heating coil to be the culprit. So I ordered one from this site and installed it. I checked back for a week and there is still frost buildup. Not sure if I have anything else to replace. Someone told me the "freeon" might be low, could this be the case?
1 Answer Jermaine, you'll need to check and replace the defrost control board, part number 61005988, if defective. Thanks. Read More...
Gerald May 05, 2014 for Model Number RCE224TDV I recently installed a new icemaker, but the water seems slow to get to it, and ice isn't made so quickly, so I've ordered a water valve. I'm thinking this should take care of the problem. Over the years I've replace the defrost heater a few times (18 years old) unit. What do you think? Jer
1 Answer Hello Gerald, If the fill tube isn't freezing up, the water valve 12001414 will most likely correct the issue. Read More...
1 Answer Hello Roy. 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 defrost timer. 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...
Vic August 24, 2013 for Model Number msd2758drq The refrigerator and freezer both got warm. Ice formed on the back of the freezer. I unplugged it for a day and then plugged it back in. It ran fine for a week and then the same problem occurred. I found the heating coil, but cannot fond the thermostat, so I don't know how to check which is working and which isn't.
1 Answer Vic, The thermostat is clipped to the top portion of the evaporator and will come as part of an assembly with the heater WP61006199. You will want to check the heater and thermostat for continuity and if there is continuity then replace the defrost board 61005988. Read More...
Wendell August 10, 2013 for Model Number as22n8d I need to know how to wire defrost thermostat and defrost heater on Admiral refrig model no as22n8d
1 Answer Hello Wendell, There are only two wires to each. Since these parts are not polarized, you cannot hook either of them up "backwards". The defrost heater will have a white wire to one end and a yellow on the other. The defrost thermostat will have a white wire that attaches to the defrost heater white wire and a blue wire on the other end that leads back to the temperature control in the fresh food section.

Hiker June 14, 2013 for Model Number Magic Chef GS22Y8D What is best way to remove and install the defrost heater?
1 Answer Hiker, To remove the defrost heater, you will first need to remove the shelves and the rear cover in the freezer compartment. Once removed you will need to defrost the coils around the heater and remove the 2 screws at each heater bracket and remove the heaters. Install new heater and reassemble. Read More...
Gene H May 14, 2013 for Model Number msd2756ge Freezer was cold, refrig was warm. Fan seemed to run continious. Coils frozen, so I defrosted with fan. Plugged back in and tripped breaker. Isolated fan and it tripped. Isolated heater and fan run and did not trip. Bad heater or thermo or? Any other test I can do to verify which part is bad? Where is damper door located on this frig? Could that be problem also? Thanks in advance. Gene
1 Answer Gene, With the unit not defrosting and the unit trip the breaker when the heater was disconnected would be a bad heater which needs to be replaced. This will come with the defrost thermostat. Read More...
Richard March 24, 2013 for Model Number Jenn-Air JCD2389GES Opened frig this morning, spelled burnt plastic and temp was up to about 50deg. Freezer section seemed normal temp. Coils looked OK, slight amount of frost. Light bulb in lower section had burst, the housing had melted a bit. We assumed cause of the melt/burst was the door was left open, though we cannot seem to reproduce any condition which would cause the door to remain open. Checked the defrost thermostat/heater: reads normal (short) when cold. We're defrosting the frig now. Suggestions?
1 Answer Richard, A few things to check, look at the lower hinges and door closer assemblys, make sure they're not worn or "dragging" (you may want to lubricate the assembly with some grease). Check the refrigerator for level in both directions, then raise the front feet 1/4 inch. This will help in closing and sealing the doors. Make sure there is nothing protruding from the door bins or shelves, and make sure the lower vegetable bins are closed completely. It takes very little to keep the doors from closing properly and sealing. Read More...
