(Update) Fridge Maintenence ? Who ever Does That ?
Fridge quit yesterday !!@#$%^&*
I have never messed w/ a fridge, probably BC I have never had trouble w/ one.
Found a "repair Guy" here in Quartzsite,....first thing he asked is if I'd done any maintenance on it. I replied, "whats that?"
Long story short, he came out, cleaned the burner/flue assy, but replaced the burner itself because it was rusted badly. When he removed the cover over the burner, I didn't believe all the black charcoal looking junk that came falling out. He chewed on me for not cleaning it once a year. Then he told me to pay attention,.....watch what he was doing, so I could do it myself from now on. This guy was a real straight shooter let me tell you ! Anyhow, point to my story,
if ya ain't ever cleaned your fridge burner, ya better do it at least every 5 yrs or s so, or it will "getcha" when ya least suspect it.
I ended up a "happy camper", mainly because he got it going,....I didn't even have to buy a whole new fridge.:)
2 hrs after it quit, and $167 (including service call and new burner) we was back to making ice !
