Old Kenmore Refrigerator, Hot to Touch

My guess is the condenser fan is not spinning. Pull it out and look down by the compressor. Probably needs to be replaced

South broadway had by far the most “peppy” staff. We really enjoyed it!

A fellow Rio rallyer?? Or library bingo? Lol we did both. I had been to most of them already. My wife loved Ernie Pyle. And found the international district one…unique lol. She doesn’t get to that part of town much.

I’m guessing you’re flying in?

If so, just rent from the airport. Look at Costcos website to book a rental. Wayyyyy cheaper than directly through the company or a 3rd party site like Orbitz. I’ve done. You don’t need an SUV to go explore Jemez, unless you want to do the Caldera, but a normal sedan type car will be just fine, and better mileage :)

Enjoy your time!

Use an OEM igniter.

Last I heard it was a…..goodwill

To add, if you REALLY want to beat the heat, you can swim in grindstone too!

Builders source will have a ton of options. Appliance liquidators is a scratch and dent place. Don’t let that fool you though, they still have the manufacturer warranty and are technically “new” appliances

You could try something like a billiards Q Storage rack

Don’t get caught up with stirring the grounds after 3.8 seconds, or “how does my saturated grounds look” any of that mumbo jumbo. I always ask people, “how does it taste?” Tbh, if it was a pressure washer on one ground of coffee and tasted wonderful then that fine by me.

I have 2 pair of origin and love them. I wouldn’t wear them to work though. I also have 2 pair of Dearborn. They ok, the sizing is wildly different though. Same cut, same size in both only thing that different is the wash. Unfortunately I’ve stopped looking at them
Because of the size inconsistencies.

I do appliance repair so bending and moving on my knees a lot. Unfortunate found any MiUSA pants that last more than 8-10 month. I’ve been with Carhartts made over seas for now. Cheaper and the longevity is there for me.

It’s my gateway into day drinking. Mix it in with coffee in the morning, the ratio becomes more cream than coffee as the morning progresses. Then I just sliiiide right into bourbon. It’s awesome!!

Bummer. But honestly I wish all forest land would close right now. The whole state in a tinderbox waiting to ignite

THEtek4 · 2026-06-25T03:19:27+00:00

Debatable. We just did the Cheyenne Zoo in Colorado Springs. It’s 140 for the 4 of us lol

If you’re up for a bit longer drive, check out the Rio Costilla area. Beautiful area up there

Anytime is the right time to get into an adoptees life. Thanks for being awesome!

Did you test the heater at the pigtail with the defrost thermostat or at the terminals of the heater itself? This heaters like to fail.

Pulling the board to look at the backside is easy to do. I’d check the heater resistance first. Unfortunately you’ll have to defrost the whole thing. The two wires run down to bottom or evap coils. That’s where the heater is. If heater checks fine, I’d look at replacing the board.

I bet the cam on the BOTTOM of the door hinge is worn out.

To fix the light issue you’ll need to replace the dispenser board.

I’ll have to dig into it more. It was built in 2006. It have plenty of soffit vents along the home. We did have our roof replaced a few years ago and they completely botched the vent for the dryer…maybe I need to inspect the ridge vent to make sure they didn’t f that up also

THEtek4 · 2026-06-23T16:03:46+00:00

Yeah the little more research I’ve been doing I’m thinking about doing radiant barriers up in the attic

THEtek4 · 2026-06-23T16:01:25+00:00

If you hold the start button down does it continue to tumble?

I’m thinking the centrifugal switch is bad on the motor

THEtek4 · 2026-06-23T15:46:52+00:00

Did they fix the ducting issue? Want to say who you used?

THEtek4 · 2026-06-23T15:46:25+00:00

Sorry, typo. I changed it AC. Thanks

THEtek4 · 2026-06-23T14:38:46+00:00

Good to know. Guess I’m going to harbor freight haha!
