[MBZ] Fridge update
You might remember a couple weeks ago when I was working on my fridge that wouldn't defrost. Well I'm sitting in the living room and I just heard the gentle rain of water into the drain pan. The dammed thing just defrosted! So theory: The timer was stuck. In my troubleshooting I cranked it around a couple cycles. At first it didn't want to come back on after I'd cranked it around but eventually it played right. I didn't think much of it at the time but I'll keep in watch mode now, if it plays up again I'll crank the timer a couple more times. If that works I'll replace it. -Curt ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com All posts are the result of individual contributors and as such, those individuals are responsible for the content of the post.

Re: [MBZ] Fridge update
Blame it on the number of videos I've made in the house... I'd noticed that the fridge wasn't running all the time which is a pretty good sign. When its freezing up it runs constantly as the coils freeze up since its not putting as much cold into the fridge compartment as it should be, especially once it ices over the hole from the freezer into the fridge. The noise in question was a rather loud drip, the water drops a good 3 from the end of the tube to the drip tray. Our house is pretty quiet. -Curt From: Randy Bennell rbenn...@bennell.ca To: Curt Raymond curtlud...@yahoo.com; Mercedes Discussion List mercedes@okiebenz.com Sent: Monday, August 18, 2014 3:22 PM Subject: Re: [MBZ] Fridge update On 18/08/2014 12:55 PM, Curt Raymond via Mercedes wrote: You might remember a couple weeks ago when I was working on my fridge that wouldn't defrost.
