Repair Summary
Checked refrigerator for weak cooling. Upon arrival, verified the compressor and condenser fans were running; however, the evaporator fan was not operating. Checked voltage to the evaporator fan and verified proper voltage was present. Also found heavy frost concentrated on the top loop of the evaporator. Replaced the evaporator cover assembly and verified proper air circulation. Connected HASS and ran a service diagnostic report. The Weak Cooling Test showed elevated temperatures in both the fresh food and freezer compartments, and the Overall Quality Check initially failed. Inspected the compressor area and found no visible oil residue. Installed a service port on the compressor and performed an initial pressure test, which showed no pressure loss. Replaced the filter drier and pressurized the sealed system to 350 PSI with nitrogen. After a 15-minute isolation period, the system dropped only 2.5 PSI. Evacuated the system to approximately 600 microns and charged it according to factory specifications. Restored operation and verified the compressor and all fans started properly. Set temperatures accordingly and advised the customer to allow approximately 24 hours for proper cooling temperatures to be reached.
