MRT118FFFZ10 Maytag Refrigerator - Overview

The reason I repaired it myself was because the repairman that diagnosed the problem.didn't come back in two weeks. The evaporator fan sits behind a vented wall in the freezer and directs cold air into freezer and refrigerator.I removed the ice make assembly first and then the freezer wall held in place by two sheet metal nuts. Then removed wires from fan motor. Removed the fan blade from fan motor,which was press fitted on,then removed fan motor from bracket assembly(make sure and retain the two vibration rubber washers on back and front of motor. Reinstall new motor with vibration washers and press fan blade on new motor. Install in bracket assemble and reassemnble.

Looked up problem in your troubleshooting section, determined necessary part, ordered part on Saturday. Received part Tuesday. Installed in about 10 minutes. Works great. Saved about $200.00.

Spoke to a repair technician online described what was happening as food keep freezing in the fridge.
He advised me to change the thermistor and if that didn't work the control board as those are the only 2 things that would cause food to freeze.
Changed thermistor and fridge is running at proper temp very disappointed with whirlpool as fridge is only 2 years old and had issues already .
Now that its repaired its Time for a COLD beer !!!
