    A faulty capacitor will cause an overheating situation that results in the compressor shutting down prematurely. A good test to see if an overheating situation exists: pull the refrigerator away from the wall and remove the cardboard cover as shown in the video. Clean the cooling fan and area with a vacuum brush attachment. Doing all of this will maximize the air circulation. Then plug the refrigerator back in, and see if the capacitor now allows the compressor to stay on for several minutes, as it should. If it does, then the capacitor is probably faulty. If it doesn't, then check for other problems, such as a faulty relay or faulty compressor.

    How did you determine that it was a bad capacitor ? Should replace the relay too ?

    nope. There is a way to reset the fridge by pushing a combination of front panel buttons (I've done it before, looking for that video again now). This video is from another planet.

      @idkmoytime4424 is the freezer showing frost in the back, it could be frozen up and blocking airflow to the fridge

    A fridge and / or freezer that isn't cooling properly could be caused by a number of different issues. How did you determine that the capacitor was causing your issue? Did you do any sort of troubleshooting to get to that conclusion?

      Good point. This part has the highest probably of being the cause of not cooling at all. I plan to make a more detailed video on this. Thanks for your feedback

    I have a wrf560sehz00 the freezer is freezing and evaporator fan is working the evaporator coils are clean . But the fridge section isn't getting cold . What could be the problem. Any help would greatly be appreciated!!

    • @ProWorksTV1
      @ProWorksTV1  14 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @phillipgillis9880 it could be the fan. There is a fan in the freezer that blows cool air up to the fridge section. Make sure you feel airflow coming out of the fridge vents.

    • @rationalevidence9095
      @rationalevidence9095 8 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      if the fan is working, your drain is clogged which makes ice build up in the tunnel from the fan/freezer to the fridge.

    I have this exact same fridge, I changed out the capacitor still not cooling my fridge. Freezer was working the whole time. What else could it be?

    • @ProWorksTV1
      @ProWorksTV1  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      If the freezer is cold but not the fridge ,it could be frost on the coils blocking airflow up to the fridge.
      1.Check for frost on the back wall of the freezer. If you do, turn it off and let it thaw is the easiest way or you can removed the back freezer panel and thaw it with a hair dryer.
      All this with the power off of course.
      2.There is also a fan behind the freezer panel, make sure it's running

      @josealfaro8733 I have an old LG side by side and the water/ice dispenser display showed a FF error code. Googled it and FF stands for freezer fan. Couldn’t find any repair videos on TH-cam for my exact model but managed to remove all necessary panels inside the freezer side and ice maker to access the freezer fan. Found a replacement freezer fan motor on Amazon for $36 dollars and got the refrigerator working again. Worth a try.

      @joycebarnard393 if your freezer is icing up. It could be the thermostat that connects to the freezer coils. Its not expensive and a pretty easy change out

      Did that ordered the part always get the wrong part. It's china parts. They said the part was on back order. I got two separate orders and they never send the right ones. The part number on the old part but still doesn't matter. Can't fix until the right part is installed . That's China made parts for you. I guess
