Hi,

I have a Whirlpool WRN28R refridgerator. I have had it for 6 years and
has run very quietly in all that time. In the past two weeks I have
noticed a very loud ticking noise coming fom my fridge when motor
starts up and keeps going until the motor shuts off. The fridge is
still cooling and and working in every way but for this very loud
ticking noise which is quite frequent. Is the timer damaged in any way
and should I get it replaced?

Hi,

Whirlpool WRN28R refridgerator

Model# appears too short and that combination will not come up for me

The only reliable source for the model# is on the model/serial tag.

Some model# helps.

If that ticking noise is comming from the defrost timer, for sure it is
time to change the defrost timer.
