Joe January 22, 2015 for Model Number 25362812202 Should there be styrofoam inside refrigerator in the back behind the light on the control panel far back? Also water dripping.
1 Answer Hello Joe, There should be a piece of Styrofoam 240545001 in the far rear of the control box called a diffuser. The water dripping is most likely from a stopped up defrost drain or a defrost issue. Read More...

Ellen November 07, 2014 for Model Number For Kenmore model 106-55542400 We replaced the defrost timer we ordered from you and it worked great! Ice was being made quickly. Now it's doing the same thing again, like it's defrosting too long. Ice begins to melt. I turn the refrigerator to off and turn it on again and it starts to run. Is there a setting on the timer that needs to be set? Is there something else that could be wrong? We put the black wire from the timer 482493 on Terminal 1. The fridge is very cold when it runs. Also has a new evaporator motor in it. And a new solenoid. Kenmore model 106-55542400 Year 2004 Please help! We don't want to have to buy a new fridge just before the holidays
1 Answer Hello Ellen, This is the indication of a different problem than that experienced before. This is the symptom of a failing cold control WP2198202. Read More...
Eric November 03, 2014 for Model Number TS25AFXKQ00 It seems like my freezer gets stuck in defrost mode.(Food starts to defrost) Is this possible? If I slam the doors when this happens it starts up and runs fine for days until it happens again. I was thinking the timer is getting stuck. Perhaps the cold thermostat is not functioning correctly? Can you please tell me the correct wiring configuation for the defrost timer for my model. Thanks for any info!
1 Answer Eric, It is very possible that the defrost timer could be sticking causing the unit to shut down. On the defrost timer W10822278 the black leak wire from the motor would go over terminal numbered 1 on the timer. Read More...
Ellen October 26, 2014 for Model Number 482493 For Kenmore model 106-55542400. For the Defrost timer 482493 Just want to verify that black wiring goes to terminal 1?
Gary September 30, 2014 for Model Number Ksrs25qxwh11 My KitchenAid has an electronic defrost timer, with a chip in it. Will the mechanical timer you sell replace the electronic timer I currently have? Also, how can I test my unit to be sure the defrost timer has failed? Thanks
1 Answer Gary, The mechanical defrost timer will not work in place of the electronic defrost timer. To check the timer the best thing to do is if the unit is not defrosting then do a continuity test on the heater and defrost bimetal, if there is continuity with both then the issue would be the timer.
