KitchenAid Fridge Repair – Malvern, OH (ABB1942WEW0, KERC607HWH4)

A Malvern homeowner contacted us about two appliances acting up at their Lake Mohawk residence. Their KitchenAid refrigerator wasn’t keeping food fresh, and their stove wouldn’t preheat properly. What we found were two separate component failures requiring targeted repairs.

The Problem

The customer reported that food spoils quickly in the refrigerator and the stove won’t preheat properly. Both appliances were located at their Lake Mohawk home, creating a frustrating situation where neither appliance was performing its basic function reliably.

Diagnosis

Our diagnosis revealed the Amana FDBM wasn’t cooling in the fridge section. For the oven, testing showed the bake function at 350°F wasn’t reaching proper temperature — readings showed 335°F when it should hit 350°F, indicating a faulty temperature sensor affecting preheating performance.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: WPW10503278-BOARD-JAZZ, WP8053344 temp sensor in oven
• Work performed: Replaced refrigerator control board and oven temperature sensor
• Result: Both appliances restored to proper operation across two service visits

Is It Worth Repairing?

KitchenAid appliances are built to last and generally worth repairing when the issues are component-level like control boards and sensors. These models represent solid mid-range construction that can provide many more years of service when properly maintained. Control board and sensor replacements are common repairs that extend appliance life significantly.

Maintenance Tips for KitchenAid Appliances

• Clean refrigerator coils every 6 months to prevent control board overheating and cooling system strain
• Keep oven vents clear and run periodic self-clean cycles to maintain accurate temperature sensor readings
• Check door seals regularly on both appliances — poor seals force systems to work harder
