I'm having the same problem with my 2000 model MSD2556AEW. The control and heater were replaced 9/04 and now I have the same problem. Is there anyway to ohm the defrost board out to be sure it's bad ??

Hi,

Other way around....ohm the defrost heater and defrost thermostat...if they check ok replace the adaptive defrost board.

I replaced theADC boardof my MSD2756DEW last night to fix the same problem. Maybe I missed something but I had to remove 7 screws to take out whole top assembly(1 in back, 4 on top and 2 which holds the ADC)to do the job. After the replacement, I can't put the two screws, which used to hold the board, back any more. Unlike the old board which is a bare board, the new one is enclosed in a nice plastic box. Does the new ADC still need to be held by those two screws ?

Thanks

John

Important....but not critical.

It should be fine.

Looks like this is a common problem with Maytag side by sides. I have a MSD2456DEB with the same problem. Wish I had found this site before ordering and replacing the defrost heater assy. Oh well, live and learn. I just ordered a replacement adaptive defrost control. Thanks for all the valuable info.

I have a Maytag MZD2766WEG wide-by-side. It is about 4 1/2 years old.

About a year ago it quit cooling. I discovered that the evaporator fan was out. I replaced that and the machine was fine until this week. My wife commented that the ice cream wasn't frozen. I checked the evaporator fan and it was working. The coils weren't frosted up. I then noticed that there was very little air entering the refrigerator compartment. I checked from the bottom of the freezer to the vents in the refrigerator and found no blockage. In the process, the damper door and spring fell out. I have resituated the damper door inside the airduct, but can't locate anyplace to hook the spring. Where does the spring attach?

Without the damper installed, the refrigerator isn't getting as much air as it should.

I am trying to determine, based on Maytag's bad reputation, if this refrigerator is worth repairing. If I get the temperature and airflow problems resolved, what is likely to go next?



Thanks for the assistance.

I managed to get the damper door and spring installed. I replaced the evaporator fan.
The airflow into the refrigerator isn't as great as it was two weeks ago. The air coming into the refrigerator feels much warmer than the air in the freezer. There is no blockage.
I verified that the damper door was open before I put everything together.

What can be causing the loss of airflow?

Default Same issue with MSD2656DE

I am facing the same issue with a MSD2656DE. Would it be a safe bet to go ahead and replace the defrost board to see if this correct the problem?

Make sure the entire evaporator coil is free of frost and ice, then you will have lots of air coming into the refrigerator section.
