Fridge Removal and Repair in Progress

[rfoster]

The life of the refrigerator is linked directly to how much cold beer one consumes.

Truk is still deciphering, however his calculations will start over as he will be starting with new components. Go ahead and finish off the old beer - don't want anything clouding the statiscal gathering process.

He can show you the data line charts next time it snows. In yellow.

The evaporator coil is shot, freon sensor squealing like pig at Jdub's hanger. For you lucky owners of older Amana's, this coil is unavailable, no makee no more! Going home and remove the damn thing myself and put in a new fridge. All the parts and doors are heading to Jdub's dumpster and the dead shell is back in place for the ride home.

Even if I had all the parts needed, the cost to repair almost equals the cost of a new fridge. Then I would still have all the other components probably on borrowed time.

Tom,

I think that Sub Zero makes a model that would be a good fit in place of the Amana. Only thing is, there are not cheap Hope you find a suitable replacement.

Truk,
In the long run, Its probably best to replace it. Mine died the night before we were to leave for Seiverville. I took all the measurements and spent the day surfing the web comparing all the manufacturers styles and measurements. I ended up with a GE that fit right in where my Jenn air was. It was a counter depth model so it was small with the doors off. I pulled the passenger seat and got mine in thru the door. I think the my XLll door is a little wider than your door.

Rick and Tuga,

Thanks for the tips, the fridge search is on.. I measured my door Rick and it's not wide enough, you XL2 guys are lucky!

Mine Amana is 67 1/2 X 36, if anyone has any ideas...

That sucks, does that mean the front window might have to come out?

No mights to it. He might cut it up into small pieces and haul it out the door, but the new one will go in thru the hole where the window was.
