Now this evening I notice that it doesn't seem to be cooling properly. We had a similar problem about two months ago and discovered that the defrost timer had gone bad--we replaced it and everything was working fine until today. Would unplugging the fridge have any affect on a good timer? One last thing: I advanced the timer manually to the defrost setting and after about 20 or 30 minutes it advanced back to cooling (I think). Does this mean the timer is still good?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21495157 Thu, 27 Nov 2008 22:53:19 EDT
