00:13 Got A fridge not cooling here
00:15 and you can hear the compressors kicked on
00:19 but you can hear one of the first things to check for is that the fan is not kicking on
00:25 so it could just be that the fan is stuck
00:28 so
00:29 what we’re gonna do is remove this ice tray deal
00:33 just by pushing up here
00:36 and sliding this out and there is two screws on the back that hold the fan channel in
00:42 so I’m gonna remove these two screws here
00:46
00:51 and this is one of the first things to check for when you’ve got a fridge that is not cooling
00:56 check for a stuck fan motor first
01:00 now that may not be the only thing going on
01:04 lift this fan channel up here and slide it out
01:07 ok
01:10 and there is our fan, you can see it’s not spinning very fast
01:14 It should be spinning faster than that
01:18 And chances are what it is is that it is too close
01:23 the fan blade is too close
01:24 see how it was rubbing against the back
01:27 and that’s why it wasn’t spinning very fast
01:29 so what I’m gonna do is pull that forward a little bit more
01:36 it’s probably a little bit safer to
01:39 turn the power off first but I’m just gonna get this done
01:44 ok
01:45 I took the whole thing off there
01:48 anyway place this on and now it’s out a little bit more and doing what it should now that was keeping the air from being able to blow down into the fridge and the freezer wasn’t circulating the air like it should
02:13 behind the fan channel on this side it’s got an adjustment here
02:14 you usually don’t have to adjust these to much
02:17 but if you wanted your freezer to be colder or needed your freezer to be colder you can adjust this dial by pulling out and turning that, each model has it’s own peculiarities. Ok now that we’ve got the fridge fixed theoretically what we need to check for is
02:34 under the pan to see if there is any ice there which there probably is and the freezer drain line is probably clogged
02:40 The way we can tell this is if we’ve got water dripping
02:43 down here
02:44 which we do so were going to need to clear that out
02:47 but I will put that on the next video.
