Most common issues on this model

  1. Door seal gone rigid, with warm air creeping in along one side
  2. A control misjudging the cabinet, so the compressor over-runs or under-runs
  3. Leaking inlet valve or water line where a feed is connected
  4. Start device worn out, humming briefly before an overload trip

Warm air sneaking in along one edge of a KBRA22ER door is the sort of thing we find by touch: a stiff gasket that no longer flexes against the frame. We test the seal with a slip of paper at several points and replace it where it has hardened.

The KBRA22ER, also listed as the KBRA22ERSS, can also confuse its own control. When a sensor reads wrongly, the compressor runs far too long or too briefly, so we measure the real cabinet temperature and compare it with what the control reports.

If the refrigerator has a water feed, the inlet valve and supply line deserve a check for leaks. And a compressor that hums and drops out calls for a start device test. Written price first, and our repairs carry a 30-day workmanship warranty.

KBRA22ERKBRA22ER questions
How do I know the gasket on my KBRA22ER is the problem?

Look for frost or moisture along one edge of the door, and test with a slip of paper around the frame. If the paper pulls out freely, the seal is not gripping.

My KBRA22ERSS compressor runs nonstop. Is the control wrong?

It may be reading the cabinet incorrectly, but a weak seal or dirty condenser can cause the same behavior. We rule those out and test the sensor against a thermometer.

Could the water line on my KBRA22ER leak without my noticing?

Yes. A slow weep at the inlet valve or fittings can dampen the floor behind the cabinet for a long time. We inspect the valve, tubing and connections, and test them under pressure.
