Roper Refrigerator RT14DKYDN01 Freezer section too warm

The Timer is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. This component is essential for controlling the defrost cycle of the refrigerator, ensuring that the appliance operates efficiently by periodically melting any frost buildup on the evaporator coils. By regulating the defrosting process, the timer helps maintain the optimal temperature and energy efficiency of the refrigerator.

Causes of a bad timer can include electrical malfunctions, wear and tear over time, or exposure to power surges. When the timer fails, the defrost cycle may not run correctly, leading to issues with frost buildup and inefficient cooling.

Symptoms of a bad timer include:

• The refrigerator running continuously without cycling off
• Frost buildup on the evaporator coils
• The refrigerator being too warm or too cold
• The defrost cycle not initiating or running too frequently

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

The Freezer Door Gasket is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool side-by-side refrigerators. Located around the inside perimeter of the freezer compartment entrance, the gasket forms an insulating seal when the door closes. As an essential component ensuring efficient operation, the gasket helps maintain even sub-zero compartment temperatures.

Causes of a bad freezer door gasket can include cracking, flaking or splitting from repeated flexing as the door opens/closes, or impressions from dents compressing sealing surfaces. 

Symptoms of a bad freezer gasket include: 

• Noticeable frost buildup around the door edges indicating air leaks
• Difficulty latching the door fully with the locking mechanism 
• Increased running times for the compressor to recover temperatures
• Higher energy bills from the refrigerator working harder to chill

 This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Kenmore, Maytag, Amana, and KitchenAid side-by-sides.

Symptoms of a bad relay and overload kit are:

• Refrigerator not cooling or icing 
• Components like lights or fans not working
• Buzzing or humming noises from the electrical control area
