I need some help. I’m trying to remove the fridge in my Escape so that I can run some wires up the side of the fridge. I’ve removed 4 screws , two in front and two in the back, disconnected the gas line, 12 volt wire and unplugged the 120 volt cord. The fridge refuses to budge. I suspect I’m missing something. Does anyone have suggestions?
In my 19 the fridge fit between the cabinet walls was brutally tight. Thought for awhile that I wouldn't be able to get it out. I managed but before it went back in I filed off a bit of the offending framing.
Thank you both for your response. I removed two additional screws at the top after removing the upper control strip. In the process of prying and pulling a piece of lightweight angle at the bottom edge of the fridge fell off . It hid the expanding foam used to seal the bottom edge. That expanding foam also prevented the bottom of the fridge from moving. I slid a thin pry bar into the foam and drove it across the bottom edge , cutting most of the foam. Then the fridge started to move. The heads of screws on the outside edge of the cabinet were embedded in the wood framing. They cause some resistance at the beginning of the pull.
