Westinghouse French Door Fridge Stopped Working – Main Beach

Westinghouse French Door Fridge Stopped Working – Main Beach

A customer in Main Beach contacted ISB Electrical because their Westinghouse French door refrigerator had stopped working. Both the fridge and freezer compartments were no longer cooling, and the appliance was not maintaining safe food storage temperatures.

When both compartments stop cooling at the same time, the fault can be caused by a power supply issue, main control board failure, compressor control problem, inverter fault, fan control fault, defrost control issue or wiring problem. In this case, the fault was found in the main electronic control system.

Inspection and Diagnosis

• Checked the refrigerator power supply and safety condition
• Confirmed the fridge compartment was not cooling
• Confirmed the freezer compartment was also not cooling
• Checked compressor and fan operation
• Inspected control signals from the electronic control system
• Checked wiring connections and visible board condition
• Tested the main power control board operation
• Confirmed the main control board fault before advising repair options

Fault Found

The fault was caused by a faulty main power control board. The control board was not operating correctly, which stopped the refrigerator from running the cooling system properly.

The main power control board manages key fridge functions including compressor control, fan operation, defrost timing and temperature management. When this board fails, both the fridge and freezer compartments can stop cooling.

Repair Required

The faulty main power control board requires replacement. After replacing the control board, the refrigerator should be tested to confirm the compressor, fans and cooling system restart correctly.

The customer was advised not to rely on the appliance for food storage until the fault is repaired and the fridge and freezer temperatures have returned to safe operating levels.

Common Causes of Westinghouse Fridge Not Cooling in Both Compartments

• Faulty main power control board
• Compressor not being switched on by the control board
• Faulty inverter board or compressor start system
• Evaporator or condenser fan not operating
• Defrost system fault affecting cooling operation
• Damaged wiring or loose control board connection
• Temperature sensor or thermistor fault
• Sealed system or compressor fault
