Amana Refrigerator SRD22VPSE Freezer section too warm

This OEM Replacement Part is a high-quality, 2-watt condenser fan motor for Whirlpool refrigerators.The motor is designed to optimize your refrigerator's cooling performance. This 115-volt motor operates with a clockwise rotation.  

Symptoms of a bad condenser fan motor kit include:

• Gradual rise in interior freezer temperatures
• Inability to maintain consistent cooling performance  
• Loud buzzing or grinding noises coming from inside
• Tripped breakers or failure to restart after service

Causes stem from normal wear of ball bearings as the high-efficiency motor operates continuously. Exposure to dust or debris introduced through openings accelerates wear over many years of use.

This OEM part is also compatible with brands including Kenmore, KitchenAid, and Danby.

The Run Capacitor is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is responsible for helping the compressor motor start and run efficiently by providing an extra electrical boost. This component ensures that the refrigerator operates smoothly and maintains the correct temperature by stabilizing the compressor's performance.

Causes of a bad run capacitor can include electrical surges, age-related wear, or overheating. When the capacitor fails, the compressor may struggle to start or run continuously, leading to inefficient cooling or a non-functional refrigerator.

Symptoms of a bad run capacitor include:

• The refrigerator not cooling properly
• The compressor not starting or running intermittently
• Unusual clicking noises from the refrigerator

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

The Compressor Start Relay is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This component helps to kickstart the compressor, facilitating the refrigeration cycle that cools the interior of the fridge. 

Such issues can stem from electrical failures within the relay, physical damage, or wear and tear from regular use. When the relay does not function correctly, it can lead to inconsistent cooling and, in severe cases, cause the compressor to overheat and fail prematurely.

Symptoms of a failing Compressor Start Relay include:

• The refrigerator not cooling properly or not cooling at all
• A noticeable clicking sound emanating from the back of the refrigerator, indicating the relay is trying to start the compressor but failing
• The refrigerator starts and stops frequently, unable to maintain a constant temperature

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.
 

This evaporator fan motor spins the freezer fan to move air across the evaporator coils and circulate it through both compartments. Replacing a weak or failed motor restores proper airflow for consistent temperatures and reliable cooling performance.

• Circulates cold air from the evaporator throughout the freezer and fresh-food sections
• Helps maintain even temperatures and stable cabinet conditions
• Common symptoms: no fan sound or airflow in the freezer, refrigerator warming while freezer may stay colder, intermittent starting/stalling, or squealing/grinding from the fan area
• Supports temperature recovery after door openings by maintaining airflow

• Unplug the refrigerator before servicing
• Access from the freezer: remove shelves/ice bin and the rear panel to reach the motor
• Transfer the fan blade and mounting hardware in the same orientation; avoid damaging evaporator fins or wiring
• When testing, hold the freezer door switch closed—the fan runs only with the switch engaged

This electronic freezer control assembly manages the freezer's control functions and settings to help restore reliable temperature regulation and responsive controls when the original control fails. Designed as a direct replacement control module. What it does:

• Controls freezer functions and user settings by communicating with sensors and other system modules.
• Commonly replaces a failed control board when the freezer won't maintain temperature, cycles erratically, or displays control-related errors.
• Restores responsive control panel behavior when buttons or digital settings stop working.
• Used when diagnostics point to control/board faults rather than mechanical components.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair to avoid shock or damage.
• Handle the control board carefully and avoid static discharge; use antistatic precautions if available.
• Match connector locations and wire harness orientation; ensure all plugs seat fully before restoring power.
• If symptoms persist after replacement, recheck wiring, sensors, and diagnostic codes before ordering additional parts.

This defrost heater warms the evaporator coil during the automatic defrost cycle to melt frost and clear airflow. Replacing a failed heater helps prevent ice buildup and restores more consistent cooling performance throughout the refrigerator. What it does

• Heats the evaporator during defrost cycles to melt accumulated frost
• Keeps airflow paths clear so temperatures stay stable
• Helps prevent frost-clogged coils that reduce cooling
• Common signs of failure: heavy frost on the back wall/evaporator cover, weak cooling, evaporator fan hitting ice, or ice returning soon after a manual defrost

• One defrost heater

• Disconnect power before servicing; wear cut-resistant gloves
• Access is behind the freezer's rear evaporator cover; remove shelves/bins and the panel
• Defrost heavy ice before removal to avoid damaging the coil or insulation
• Transfer any original mounting clips/insulators and route wires exactly like the original; avoid bending the heating element

This PTC start relay plugs onto the compressor to momentarily power the start winding and help the compressor spin up smoothly. Replacing a failed relay can stop repetitive clicking and help restore stable cooling performance. What it does:

• Momentarily energizes the compressor's start winding at startup; the PTC element then increases resistance to take the start winding out of the circuit.
• Helps protect against repeated hard-start attempts that cause clicking and no-cool conditions.
• Common failure signs include repeated clicking, the compressor not starting, warm temperatures, burn marks/melted housing, or a relay that rattles when shaken.
• Mounts directly on the compressor terminals and interfaces with the model-specific overload and cover.

• 1 PTC start relay

• Disconnect power and allow components to cool before servicing.
• Access the compressor compartment; remove any cover/retainer to reach the start device.
• Note wiring and orientation; pull the old relay straight off the compressor pins and push the new relay fully onto the pins. Reconnect wires and reinstall the cover.
• Use only the start device specified for your exact model/compressor. If the old relay shows heat damage, inspect the matching overload and wiring for issues.
