What this family is
The AMA line is an Amana refrigerator family, and its model list is what this page can say about it. This family spans twenty-five model numbers across several cabinet sizes, so the shared design is what makes this order transferable between sizes. Not cooling is the class these cabinets arrive with most often.
Faults seen on this line, and the page for each
- Not cooling — The freezer still works and the fresh-food side does not. See the not cooling page for this family. — Slug: amana-amana-refrigerator-ama-refrigerator-cooling-failure-2 — Title: Amana AMA refrigerator: not cooling
- Ice maker fault — The cubes are hollow, small or half formed. The ice maker fault page for this family carries it. — Slug: amana-amana-refrigerator-ama-refrigerator-ice-production-2 — Title: Amana AMA refrigerator: ice maker fault
- Water leak — Ice outside the mould, on the shelf or down the back wall. Covered on this family’s water leak page. — Slug: amana-amana-refrigerator-ama-refrigerator-water-leak-2 — Title: Amana AMA refrigerator: water leak
- Abnormal noise — A drumming from the back panel while the appliance runs. See the abnormal noise page for this family. — Slug: amana-amana-refrigerator-ama-refrigerator-abnormal-noise-2 — Title: Amana AMA refrigerator: abnormal noise
Problem classes in order
- Not cooling, first here — Usual entry point: a condenser fan that has stopped.
- Ice maker fault, second here — The common opener here is a fill valve that is not opening.
- Water leak, third here — Most often starts as condensation past a tired gasket.
- Abnormal noise, fourth here — Usual entry point: a loose rear panel.
- Body: An ordering, not a share — no denominator for this family exists here. Ice holds second and noise falls last on this family, because a ladder of cabinet sizes stresses the air and ice path rather than the cabinet itself.

Problem classes by rank — No denominator: no snapshot here carries a component share for this family, so the table gives an ordering and withholds the share.
General guidance| Problem class | Rank on this family | Component share |

| Abnormal noise | fourth | not recorded |
What is owner work here and what is not
The owner-side line here is the rear panel: vents, seals, condenser, levelling, bin and filter all sit in front of it. Across a ladder of cabinet sizes the access is shared but the part sizes are not, so read the model off the rating plate before ordering. Behind the panel is a service call.
