Fisher & Paykel RF170WRKUX6 Refrigerator Diagnosis and Repair

Fisher & Paykel refrigerator

Most common issues on this model

  1. Dispenser slowing down because the supply line is restricted
  2. Hollow or oddly shaped ice cubes
  3. Cooling sensor sending wrong readings
  4. Gasket wear near the dispenser side of the door

For a busy kitchen, the RF170WRKUX6 offers Series 7 cooling in a 32″ cabinet with 17.1 cu. ft., a right-hand door and a through-door ice and water dispenser. It normally stands in a standard refrigerator bay, with the water line coming in from the wall behind it.

Hollow or oddly shaped cubes usually tell us the ice maker is not getting its full fill of water, which points back to the supply, filter or valve. A dispenser that dribbles or cuts off leads us to the same path, so we check the supply line for restriction before taking anything apart.

Once the water side is cleared, we test the ActiveSmart sensors and examine the door gasket around the dispenser. A written price comes before any work starts, and we back our repairs with a 30-day workmanship warranty.

RF170WRKUX6RF170WRKUX6 questions
Why are my ice cubes hollow?

A short fill is the usual reason, from low pressure, a partly blocked line or a weak fill valve. We measure the water entering the ice maker and trace the restriction.

How do I know whether the filter or the valve is the problem?

Swap in a fresh filter first. If flow stays weak, we test the supply and the valve. This order keeps you from paying for a valve when a filter would have solved it.

Does the right-hand hinge change how you service it?

It mostly affects which gasket and hinge parts we bring. The cooling and water systems work the same, so we confirm hinge side and the full model number before we order.
