Two issues with this model...

 

1) Serial Numbers ranging from 103KRxxx through 111KRxxx---water line inside door is too close to the icemaker cooling ducts (frozen).

Not a repairable fault. Replace entire door assy.

 

2) Serial Numbers 311KRxxx and earlier/lower---Prone to "ER/IF" error and fan blade noise (hitting ice/heavy frost). Icemaker intermittently functions.

Replace the GrilleFan Assy (AEB73785610). An internal heater has been installed around the "ice room" fan motor to eliminate ice/frost interference.

Serial is 104kr.... Customer says they will buy bagged ice for awhile.

 

Thanks for the help.

Your welcome:)

A note of caution---should your customer change their mind (or you encounter a similar refrigerator)...

Before removing or installing a door---it must be opened at a 90 degree angle.

Removing or installing the door at the 90 degree angle---allows for correct internal door tension spring and cam position.

An improperly installed door---will not close correctly.

More than a few retailer delivery/installation crews have made this mistake.

A quick fix---would be to carry the Lower Door Hinge (and use as a tool)

When correcting/repairing an improperly installed door (especially the left side with all of the wiring and water line hook-ups)

the top hinge can be disconnected/loose

Without disconnecting the wiring or water line---the door can be lifted off the lower hinge---insert the *hinge tool* and rotate

the spring within the door to the correct position.

Position the door at a 90 degree angle and re-install door/re-install the upper hinge. Done.
