I want to thank this forum for the advice about the Amish cooling unit. It wasn't hard to install and the refrigerator is working better than ever. No recall equipment necessary.
I did find one thing that I think everyone should check. My cooling fans weren't working when I hooked the refrigerator up again. I found that the white and black wires connected at the control box had been switched. I did not disconnect these wires from the control box in order to replace the coils. I did disconnect them at the condenser at the top of the refrigerator.
When I switched the wires to the proper terminals the cooling fans came on. The wiring diagram is very simple to down load for your specific unit. If I had not corrected this situation I would have had either a fire or another blown cooling unit. I don't know how it happened, I have no one to accuse for doing it, I know I did not do it. But better safe than sorry, check the cooling fan connections to make sure yours are working.
My refrigerator is working great, time to buy a fresh case of brew, pull out the awning, and listen to the birds sing. Ain't life grand?
