Frequently Asked Questions
•What is the typical resistance range for the temperature sensors in this Maytag refrigerator?
The resistance of the temperature sensors typically varies with temperature. Consult the service manual for the exact resistance values at different temperatures. Generally, at room temperature (70°F), expect a resistance around 5k to 10k ohms.
•How do I manually force a defrost cycle on this Maytag refrigerator model?
The procedure to manually initiate a defrost cycle varies depending on the exact model. Refer to the service manual or technical sheet. Some models have a test point on the control board that, when shorted, initiates a defrost cycle. Other models use a button combination. Exercise caution when accessing the control board and follow safety precautions.
•Where is the evaporator fan motor located, and how do I access it?
The evaporator fan motor is typically located behind the rear panel inside the freezer compartment. To access it, you'll need to remove the shelves and the rear panel, which is usually held in place by screws. Be sure to disconnect the power before proceeding.
