Electrolux EW28BS87SS French-Door Refrigerator Repair
Most common issues on this model
- Dispenser water line and fill valve
- Freezer and fresh-food temperature balance
- Wave-Touch display response
- Door seals and hinge alignment
The EW28BS87SS is a standard-depth, bottom-freezer French-door refrigerator from the Electrolux line with Wave-Touch controls. This one has been out of production for a while, yet it keeps showing up on our calls around Houston, and fixing it is routine for us.
Standard-depth units stand out from the cabinets, so the back and sides have more room to breathe than a counter-depth model. Our first pass is the gaskets, the freezer fan and the sensors that report temperature, followed by a look at how the touch display behaves. Anything wet around a dispenser sends us to the supply line and fill valve.
Revisions such as EW28BS87SS3 can change which part fits, so the nameplate gets read first. You see the estimate on paper first, and the work is backed for 30 days. When a refrigerator this age is not worth the bill, you will hear that from us.

What is the EW28BS87SS?
The cabinet stands out from the counters, the freezer sits at the bottom and the controls are Wave-Touch. Production has ended, so we handle it as a legacy unit and match parts to the label before we order.
The display on my French-door refrigerator is slow to respond. What do you check?
With touch controls, the wiring behind the panel gets tested before the panel itself, and then the sensors it reads. We confirm the readings against a thermometer before suggesting any part, with the cost spelled out before you agree.
Does the revision number on the label matter?
Yes. One build is listed as EW28BS87SS3, and its parts are not always interchangeable with other builds. We copy the nameplate numbers so the part that arrives fits the unit in your kitchen.
