Hi, CaptainWarmFridge speaking!! I have a Whirlpool Side By Side Model # ED25QFXHW00.
What happens is it will run and cool just fine in perfect temp range (30-40 degrees) for half a day, maybe even a couple days sometimes. Then it will either all of a sudden get super cold (10-30 degrees) so things practically freeze in my refrigerator or it will get so warm (40-60 degrees) that my freezer starts to melt and everything in the refrigerator goes bad.
I find when it’s stuck in warm mode if i give it a thump with my fist up by the control knobs it will kick back on, so when I see the temps getting out of range that’s what I have been doing for now. If it gets stuck in cold mode I turn the temp dial down so it shuts off then I put the dial back up to where it was.
I already replaced the Defrost Timer because a friend recommended that idea to me since it was cheap and easy. It does the same thing though with the new one as it did with the old one so it isn’t that.
What’s next? Anyone know what could be the problem or have any ideas to try next?
Thanks
