Amana Refrigerator Repair – Dellroy, OH (BRF20VSE)

We responded to a service call in Dellroy, OH for an Amana refrigerator that wouldn’t get cold in either compartment. The customer also reported their ice maker hadn’t been working for months. Our diagnosis revealed a failed cold control thermostat that needed replacement.

The Problem

The customer contacted us because their refrigerator and freezer would not get cold. Additionally, the ice maker in the freezer had not been working for months, creating a double appliance issue that needed immediate attention.

Diagnosis

Upon inspection, we found that the cold control had failed. This thermostat component is critical for maintaining proper temperatures in both the refrigerator and freezer compartments. When it fails, the cooling system can’t cycle properly, resulting in warm temperatures throughout the unit.

• Work performed: Replaced the failed cold control thermostat and installed a new ice maker
• Result: Everything appears to be operating correctly with proper cooling restored

A thermostat and ice maker replacement on a unit like this BRF20VSE model is typically a cost-effective repair compared to replacement costs. These components are common failure points that can give the appliance many more years of service once addressed.
