What the PX family is
The spine for the PX family records 3 model codes built on a common stem — a short run rather than a long one, which is why a single ordering covers all of them. Not Cooling or Not Freezing and ice maker fault dominate here; each is covered on its own page.
Problems on these models, and where each is covered
- Not Cooling or Not Freezing — A cabinet that runs and still will not get cold is almost always moving air badly, not making cold badly. See its page. — Link: acopower-acopower-refrigerator-px-refrigerator-cooling-failure-2
- Ice Maker Fault — Ice stops for temperature reasons far more often than for ice-maker reasons. See its page. — Link: acopower-acopower-refrigerator-px-refrigerator-ice-production-2
- Abnormal Noise or Vibration — Most new refrigerator noises are a normal noise finding a new path out. See its page. — Link: acopower-acopower-refrigerator-px-refrigerator-abnormal-noise-2
- Water Leak — Water inside a refrigerator is nearly always melt that could not reach the drain. See its page. — Link: acopower-acopower-refrigerator-px-refrigerator-water-leak-2
The problem classes in order on this family
- Not Cooling or Not Freezing — First on this family.
- Ice Maker Fault — Second.
- Abnormal Noise or Vibration — Third.
- Water Leak — Fourth.
- Body: No denominator backs this ordering: the PX fact bundle carries no component shares. AcoPower boxes are portable coolers that travel, so they see things a kitchen appliance never sees: a marginal supply, direct sun on the lid, being loaded warm, and being tilted in a vehicle — and every one of those outranks a component fault in the list below.

Before you open anything
Safety
Unplug the cabinet or switch off its breaker before removing any panel: a capacitor can hold a charge after the power is off and the fan can start without warning. The sealed system is not owner work at any stage, and while a cabinet is warm a refrigerator holds food safely at 40 degrees Fahrenheit, which is 4 degrees Celsius, or below.
Which of these are owner-fixable on these models
The first checks of every problem above are owner work on the PX models. The line is the panel: anything needing a meter on live terminals is a service call.
