    1962 GE Spacemaker TC469 Refrigerator - "Repaired" - still does not work. NEED HELP!

    Not Giving Up David: I was a little dejected when the fridge was not fixed with this last go round of repair and had to put it on the back burner for a while due to my little dog, Grace Kelly's death and my grandmother's death. But with your help and encouragement, I am back on the horse and...

    1962 GE Spacemaker TC469 Refrigerator - "Repaired" - still does not work. NEED HELP!

    yeah, I saw that black wire and totally freaked out! I am glad I noticed it before I got shocked. I am going to call the repair shops Misty on FB recommended here in town. I don't think I am qualified (no matter how much I want to be) to even attempt to fix it myself. Gosh, I sure hope it...

    I was surprised that I was able to find it on Amazon too! I would be happy to have copies made for you. I have a little copier here, but it would take forever and it probably would not be very good quality. I will let you know when I am able to get out and have the copies done. :)

    1962 GE Spacemaker TC469 Refrigerator - "Repaired" - still does not work. NEED HELP!

    Hi David, I disconnected the green wire (photo 1), but the fan did not turn on. I also noted a uncapped back wire coming from the fridge that seems concerning (photo 2), so I turned it off. I did not know if it was live or not.

    1962 GE Spacemaker TC469 Refrigerator - "Repaired" - still does not work. NEED HELP!

    I guess the first guy who swapped out the compressor said he got it to make ice, but the compressor would not stay on. The second guy rewired it and it turns on, but never gets even a little cooler inside the fridge or the freezer. Where is the defrost timer coil? Maybe I can take a photo for...

    Photos of Fridge Hey Mixrman, It was my pleasure to post the photos. I am so glad you were able to get your refrigerator fixed! I ended up purchasing a manual for my repairman to be sure he had the correct wiring diagrams. I found it on Amazon of all places! Thank you so much for offering...

    1962 GE Spacemaker TC469 Refrigerator - "Repaired" - still does not work. NEED HELP!

    Turbokinetic: No, it does not work at all. I purchased an old repair manual for the repairman I hired, he rewired it correctly, but when we turned it on, it no longer gets cold. He does not repair compressors, so he referred me to another shop. I am not very confident that it will ever be fixed...

    Compressor Change Thanks John, I will definitely relay this new information to my repairman. My repairman, Anthony looked at it yesterday and remarked that he was surprised that this compressor was used, especially because I care so much about the quality of products used to refurbish this...

    David, I think you are right! It is nice to work with someone who is excited about the project and knows what he is doing. I think I am finally on the right path.

    Fridge Hi everyone, I am sorry it has taken me so long to get back to this thread. My repairman just left, so I finally have an update to share, but I read everyone's comments and wanted to answer all the questions first. The update on the fridge is below my answers. :) Combo52: Thank you...

    Photo Inside Top Door Hi John, Here is a photo of the inside of the door for you. I need to find new bars for the door myself. When I first got the refrigerator it was so filthy I threw some of the parts in the dishwasher and it ruined them, which is why there is a white film on the bars. I...

    1962 GE Spacemaker TC469 Refrigerator - "Repaired" - still does not work. NEED HELP!

    David, Yes, it is quite a mess of wiring back there. I am very relieved to have Anthony (my repairman) on the case. He was so helpful with my Maytag set. I am sure he will know what to do. :) Thank you for all your advice!

    1962 GE Spacemaker TC469 Refrigerator - "Repaired" - still does not work. NEED HELP!

    turbokinetic, The fan moves freely. It has three wires as seen in the attached photos. In the photos I label where each wire goes from the fan to where they end up. I have called the repairman who I convinced to fix my vintage Maytag W/D and he agreed to come out to look at the fridge. I was...

    1962 GE Spacemaker TC469 Refrigerator - "Repaired" - still does not work. NEED HELP!

    Oh Boy I just want to cry. I wanted this fridge so badly and tried everything I could to get it running. I printed out all the suggestions from this site, told him what was thought to be wrong with it and he just ignored me. I even referred him to this site to ask questions if he was stuck. He...

    1962 GE Spacemaker TC469 Refrigerator - "Repaired" - still does not work. NEED HELP!

    fan must run turbokinetic, It is very sad. I had the repairman return it after a year being gone. He told me that he had consulted an "old timer" who said that it did not need a fan. When he returned it he said he did not know what else he could do and could not fix it. It took me nine months...

    1962 GE Spacemaker TC469 Refrigerator - "Repaired" - still does not work. NEED HELP!

    fan must run That is what I thought. How do I get the fan running again with this new configuration? Are there any parts I need to purchase? If so, should I purchase the original parts or new parts that work with the new compressor? I do have a cover, it was removed to take photos. I just...

    1962 GE Spacemaker TC469 Refrigerator - "Repaired" - still does not work. NEED HELP!

    A year ago I sent my refrigerator out to be repaired and finally got it back this past week, but it still does not work. The compressor was replaced with a Panasonic R134A DGH66C94RAU compressor, but the fridge still has the same problem it originally had. When plugged in it gets cold, but after...

    I have the same refrigerator TC469WB I have the same refrigerator, but a different problem. After a year of waiting for it to be repaired, I got it back with a new compressor, but the fan does not stay on and the compressor does not restart, which is exactly what the problem was before I sent...
