Whirlpool WRT359SFYM Wide Top-Freezer Fridge Repair

Most common issues on this model

Whether the unit is equipped with the ice maker and, if so, its water line
Ice maker fill, arm and valve operation
Gallon door bin supports and gasket seal
Evaporator fan and defrost drain

The WRT359SFYM is a wide top-freezer refrigerator with gallon-size door storage and an all-stainless matching finish. Some versions have an ice maker, and others do not, so the first thing we do is confirm which version is in your kitchen.

If yours has the ice maker, the water line behind the cabinet is the first thing we look at, followed by the inlet valve, the fill tube and the ice maker arm. Slow or hollow cubes often trace back to low flow and not to the ice maker itself. For cooling problems in the cabinet, we check the evaporator fan, the defrost drain and the door gaskets, because the extra width means longer gasket runs and more places for a gap.

Models like this one come with several finish and revision suffixes, so the full number on the sticker is how we pick the right part. Our quote is in writing before work starts, and labor is covered for 30 days.

WRT359SFYMWRT359SFYM questions

My WRT359SFYM has no ice maker. Can one be added?

Some versions are equipped and others are not. We check the sticker and the cabinet for the wiring and water connection before saying whether it can be done on your unit.

Ice from the ice maker is small and hollow. What causes that?

Low water flow is the usual cause. We test the supply, the inlet valve and the fill tube, and check for a partly frozen line before replacing the ice maker.

Does a wider cabinet need different checks?

The principles are the same, but the longer door gaskets give more room for gaps. We run a paper test along each gasket and check hinge alignment as well as the cooling parts.
