Whirlpool Refrigerator EB9FVBXVB01 Freezer section too warm

The Run Capacitor is an OEM part for Whirlpool appliances, designed to provide the necessary electrical charge to start and run the compressor motor. This part attaches to the compressor to aids in maintaining a consistent motor speed and ensuring smooth operation. The run capacitor plays a crucial role in the appliance's electrical system, storing and releasing energy as needed to power the motor.

Causes of a bad Run Capacitor include electrical surges, wear and tear over time, or overheating, which can lead to a failure in providing the necessary start-up energy or maintaining motor speed.

Symptoms of a bad Run Capacitor include:

• The appliance does not start.
• The motor shuts off shortly after starting.
• The appliance is humming but not running.
• Increased energy consumption.

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

The Evaporator Fan Motor is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is responsible for circulating air over the evaporator coils, which helps to maintain a consistent temperature throughout the refrigerator and freezer compartments. It operates at a power requirement of 115V, 60Hz, and 0.14A, featuring a shaft that measures 1/8" in diameter and 5/8" in length. 

Causes of a bad evaporator fan motor can include electrical failures, wear and tear from continuous use, or obstruction from debris that hinders the fan's movement. A malfunctioning fan motor can lead to uneven cooling and compromised performance of the refrigerator.

Symptoms of a bad evaporator fan motor include:

• Inconsistent temperatures in the refrigerator or freezer
• Unusual noises coming from the fan area
• The refrigerator running continuously without cycling off
• Frost buildup on the evaporator coils

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

This refrigerator defrost timer automatically starts and ends the defrost cycle to melt frost from the evaporator coils. Replacing a failed timer restores consistent cooling performance and helps prevent frost buildup that can restrict airflow.

• Controls the timed switch between cooling and defrost to keep evaporator coils clear of frost
• Common symptoms of failure: heavy frost on the evaporator or back panel, fresh food section too warm, unit runs constantly, or won't resume cooling after defrost
• Restores proper frost removal and airflow for stable temperatures
• Designed to match the original timer's function and wiring connections for applicable models

• Disconnect power before servicing; wear cut-resistant gloves
• Access location varies by model—often in the fresh food control housing or rear machine compartment
• Photograph/label wire positions and transfer them to the matching terminals on the new timer
• Reuse original mounting hardware and install in the same orientation as the original

This is the mechanical cold-control thermostat for the freezer. It senses temperature and switches the cooling system on and off to maintain your selected setting, restoring steady freezer temps and normal compressor cycling.

• Regulates freezer temperature by opening/closing electrical contacts to control cooling
• Symptoms of a failing control include freezer too warm or too cold
• Unit runs constantly, won't start, or won't shut off at set point
• Temperature knob feels unresponsive or no distinct "click" when turned

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Access the control housing; note wiring and transfer leads one at a time
• Route the sensing tube exactly as original; do not kink, pinch, or cut it
• Set to a mid setting after install and allow up to 24 hours for temps to stabilize

The Defrost Thermostat is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It monitors the temperature of the evaporator coil and signals the defrost heater to turn on when necessary, preventing frost buildup on the coil.

You should replace the defrost thermostat if it becomes faulty or damaged. Causes of a bad defrost thermostat can include electrical issues, exposure to moisture, or general wear and tear over time.

Symptoms of a bad defrost thermostat include:

• Frost buildup on the evaporator coil
• The refrigerator running constantly or not cooling properly
• Water leaks inside the refrigerator
• The defrost heater not activating during the defrost cycle

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