KitchenAid KTRC19KM Refrigerator Service
If a KTRC19KM cools in bursts, running for hours and then sitting idle while the shelves warm, the control is probably misreading the cabinet. The refrigerator is also sold as KTRC19KMBL and KTRC19KMSS, and the rating plate on some units reads KTRC19KMBL00. Sensors drift as they age, and the control then makes the wrong decision with perfectly good information from a wrong sensor.
We place our own thermometer inside, record the cabinet temperature over the visit, and compare it with what the control seems to think. Where a water line is connected we check the inlet valve and tubing, and we test the compressor start device so it is not mistaken for a control problem.
A board that has aged out is the part we confirm availability on before we recommend anything. You receive the price in writing before we start, and our 30-day workmanship warranty covers the repair.
A sensor that reads the wrong temperature misleads the control, which runs the compressor too long and then shuts it off too soon. We compare the sensor against our thermometer and replace it when they disagree.
Yes. The relay and overload sit on the side of the compressor and can be removed and tested with a meter. We also read the windings, which tells us whether the compressor itself is sound.
Close the shutoff valve and wipe the area, then call us. We inspect the valve, the tubing and each fitting, replace what is leaking, and check the floor underneath for moisture damage.
