Well, as soon as you say the magic
words, "built in" it increases the
cost many fold. When the guy came to my
house, the 1st thing he
did was yell at me for shutting the
unit off. I told him that if I left
it on, he would have told me that I
broke something. Of course he
said that he wouldn't say that. But,
when he turned it on, I felt very
cold air coming out of the freezer and
fridge vents. His exact words
were, "well it's been 7 years since you
had the compressor replaced,
so that's what is needed!" No
diagnostics.


Pitiful.

That made me extra
suspicious.


big grin.

I figured we could probably buy a non
built in for a whole lot less. So we
paid him his $75 and showed him out.
The rest I already told. BTW,
the defrost timer cost me $40 and it was
in stock at the local appliance
parts place.
