This page is for the Maytag MBB1954GEW, a bottom-mount refrigerator with one upper door and a freezer drawer beneath it. Letters at the end of the number stand for finish or revision, and we check them on the data plate before ordering.
On a drawer freezer, frost on the basket and on the back wall is the first sign we look for, because it shows whether the defrost cycle is clearing the evaporator. We test the defrost heater, the termination sensor and the control that runs the cycle, then inspect the drawer gasket for gaps that feed moisture into the cabinet.
A noisy fan is the other common visit on this type, and it often goes with a frosted evaporator. Once the cause is known, you get a quote up front and a 30-day guarantee on the work.
Key features
- Bottom-mount layout with the freezer drawer below
- Fresh-food door on top, freezer drawer at the bottom
- Glass shelves that adjust in the upper compartment
- Electronic or mechanical control, depending on the build
Error codes this model can show
What causes frost on the freezer basket?
Moisture entering through a poor drawer seal, or a defrost cycle that no longer clears the evaporator. We test the heater, the sensor and the control, and we inspect the gasket.
Is a loud fan noise serious?
It can be early warning of a frosted evaporator or a worn fan motor. We locate the noise, check for ice on the fan blade and tell you which repair applies.
Do you repair refrigerators that are out of warranty?
Yes. Most of our refrigerator calls are on units that no longer have a manufacturer warranty, and we tell you straight when a repair is not worth it.
