Amana fridge and freezer not cooling (REPAIR)

When your Amana fridge and freezer don’t cool, it’s an issue connected to improper maintenance, bad cleaning or overused parts. If you see frost buildup only on the back freezer compartment wall, then the automatic defrost system may have failed. When working properly, the defrost system melts frost off the evaporator coils every 8 hours or so to keep the air paths through the evaporator clear so the freezer and refrigerator compartments cool properly. If the automatic defrost system breaks, frost builds up on the evaporator and back freezer compartment wall. The frost buildup blocks cooling air paths through the evaporator so the freezer doesn't cool well. Pay closer attention to the thermostat. It is likely defective. The defrost bi-metal thermostat shuts off the defrost heater if it gets hot enough to damage the evaporator. If the defrost bi-metal thermostat fails, the heating element doesn't turn on, and frost builds up on the evaporator. When the frost buildup is excessive, the refrigerator can't cool well. If the defrost bi-metal thermostat fails, replace it with a manufacturer-approved replacement part. Refrigerator DIY might finish not as the owner expects.
