Hi All,
Help!
refrigerator freezer: Whirlpool GR2SHKXKQ 21.6 cu ft Purchased ~ 12/2010
Stinker won't cool below 50 degrees Fahrenheit. Both sections.
It started out stinking like a burnt tire. Then frost all over the freezer items.
So I replaced the 4387244 Condenser Fan Motor, which indeed was leaking oil and not spinning too freely.
Now I have lots of air going in the bottom front left (my left, its right) and going out the bottom front right.
The wind coming out the fan in the freezer section is not all that cold.
The thing runs for a while and stops. Then cycles again after a bit. If it is off and I kill power at the breaker, it will start again.
I need my freeze back before I loose big dollars in food. And the local repairmen take forever to get here. Plus, most of them suck at it. The one guy that is magic at this stuff is so far away, it is hard to get him to come out (I insist on paying travel, but he is swamped.)
