Amana Refrigerator Repair – Canton, OH (ABD2533DES)

We responded to a service call on Navarre Road Southwest in Canton, OH for an Amana refrigerator that wouldn’t cool. The customer reported hearing the fan but no cooling for over 12 hours. Our diagnosis revealed a failed control board and frozen evaporator coils.

The Problem

The customer’s Amana refrigerator won’t cool. I hear the fan but its not cooling for over 12 hr.

Diagnosis

The evaporator coils were completely frosted over, blocking airflow despite the fan running. The control board had failed, preventing proper defrost cycles. We also found damaged gears on the freezer door slides and a misaligned refrigerator door.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: WPW10503278 — control board, 12002497 — freezer door slide gear
• Work performed: Defrosted evaporator and installed new control board. Also installed new gears on freezer door slides and adjusted refrigerator door
• Result: Refrigerator cooling properly with correct temperatures in both compartments

Is It Worth Repairing?

Amana refrigerators are solid mid-range appliances that typically last 10-15 years with proper maintenance. A control board replacement on a model this age is usually cost-effective compared to replacement, especially when combined with other needed repairs like door adjustments.

Maintenance Tips for Amana Refrigerators

• Check door seals monthly — Amana models are sensitive to air leaks that force the compressor to overwork
• Clean condenser coils every 6 months, located behind the bottom grille on most Amana side-by-side models
• Keep freezer door slides lubricated and check for worn gears, which can prevent proper sealing
