    Kenmore Elite Refrigerater not getting cold
    Hello,
    How long will it take for the refrigerater to start blowing cold air. Just got a used Kenmore Elite, side by side. Plugged it in, and only get slightly cold air. Not familiar with the controls. What can I do?
    Sincerely
    Jim

    Usually when you buy one used the unit will have a dirty condenser coil. To clean it remove the back and wash out the coils with spray soap like "409" and wash off with hose nozzle. Make sure to clean the fan, too. It should get cold rather quickly. Here are the manuals:https://dl.dropbox.com/u/8010163/Whi...rigerators.zip
    Whirlpool makes Kenmore.

Kenmore Elite Dryer runs cold [ 1 Answers ]

I have a Kenmore Elite Dryer that runs cold. There is electricity going to the heating element (already checked that), but the heating element never gets hot... Could it be the element (is it that simple) or is there more to this puzzle that I should look at first?
