We were having problems with our whirlpool WRX988SIBM01 refrigerator cooling enough. It was usually hovering around the low 40’s but was progressively getting worse over the past few weeks. After doing research on the forum here I bought a new evaporator fan W10633627 and replaced it today.
Everything went well with disassembling the fridge and replacing the part and putting everything back together. After I powered on the fridge after the repair and did the diagnostics test #3 I was able to verify that the evap fan was turning on. So I exiting the service mode and just left the fridge alone to cool down.
However, after leaving the fridge on for 2 hours now neither the fridge or the freezer has cooled down at all even though I can hear it running. So I am at a loss now for how to troubleshoot the issue further.
Can y’all please help point me in the right direction?
