Problems
Not Getting Cold Enough
The freezer is warm Warm at the top of the freezercabinet. Could the fan be faulty?
Fix
At the back of the freezer are 4 screws securing the cover.
...
I ordered the replacement fan and it appears they made a enhancement to prevent the fan from moving down the shaft. Turns the fan should be pulling through the coils and blowing out through the upper vents. So much quieter now!
Ice Forming
Ice is forming at the bottom of the freezer. The drain tube is either blocked with ice or gunk.
Fix
We could remove the contents and let the freezer defrost completely or we could try to unclog the drain. Since we don't have anyplace to put the contents, we are going to try to unclog the drain.
At the back of the freezer are 4 screws securing the cover. Remove the cover and determine the location of the drain.
Add boiling water to the drain until the drain allows water to flow.
- Add boiling water
- Suck up water once it gets a little cold
- Add more boiling water
- repeat
I also adjust my freezer setting from 4.5 to the recommended 3. Perhaps the 4.5 setting which is colder caused the drain to freeze.
If this happens again, I may wrap a copper wire around the defrost element and have it run into the drain to keep it from freezing up.
