hi all,

thinking my amana fridge might have bit the dust. compressor buzzes, then tries to start and doesnt. could be a bad start relay, but no one has one locally. my door panel controls dont work and the icemake/water inlet solenoid has been slowly leaking and is all corroded.

i bought a relay kit but of course after driving to calgary to get it and having jim ellis make me a platform to get it out.

clarke, forest and i took the fridge out and didnt get anywhere.

with 3 people it isnt too hard, but we didnt take it all the way out. just rolled it out on the platform and pulled it forward so we could get behind it.

so.. i know a number of you have replaced the fridge, what exact fridge did you put in? and how did you anchor it? the amana has wheels that screw down to push it up against the top brace over the fridge. i suspect newer ones dont have that.

responses quickly please.

i have not measure how easy to get it out the spiral staircase air door yet
