What the RMRS group is
The seven codes listed here are the RMRS group. Every code opens with the same stem and differs only after it. This page names what goes wrong on a cabinet of this kind and where each fault is dealt with, starting with noise and vibration and leaks.
Faults on this family and where to read about them
- Noise and vibration — covered by Avanti RMRS Refrigerator: Noise and Vibration — A new noise, or an old one that has got worse.
- Water and leaks — covered by Avanti RMRS Refrigerator: Water Leak — A puddle, a damp patch or an unexplained sheet of ice.
- Cooling and temperature — covered by Avanti RMRS Refrigerator: Not Cooling — Food that is not cold while the machine is plainly working.
- Ice production — covered by Avanti RMRS Refrigerator: Ice Maker Fault — No ice, slow ice, or hollow cubes, on the models of this group that are fitted with an ice maker at all.
Problem classes in frequency order on RMRS
- Noise and vibration — First: a light cabinet couples its own vibration into whatever it touches.
- Water and leaks — Here because it is slower to appear than the class above it.
- Cooling and temperature — Mid-list on RMRS, and the class most sensitive to where the cabinet stands.
- Ice production — It closes the list because part of this family cannot produce it.

When this stops being owner work
Everything that can be settled from outside the cabinet is owner work here: where the machine stands, whether it is level, whether the door pulls shut, whether the condenser is clear and whether the drain takes water. Everything behind a panel is not.
