frost build up

I have a KRFC604FSS that recently has gotten warm in the RC again. I got it used (supposedly broken) a couple years ago. It worked for 3-4 months and then the RC started getting warm. I then downloaded the service manual and started reading the "Thermistor and Frost buildup" section. I added...

This refrigerator has had the evaporator replaced shortly after the warranty had expired. On occasion I still had to defrost it because of ice buildup on the evaporator by the fan. It started to happen more frequently and I suspected that the Freon level had dropped. I added Freon and that issue...

There is a persistent moisture buildup or a little bit of ice in the vent part of the top of the fresh food part of this french door refrigerator. You can see it's gotten so bad it's causing some rust in the shelf grooves. I unplugged the fridge and let it defrost for 48 hours and plugged back...

New to the forum, have an issue that has been driving me and the local GE repair man crazy. Issue is the freezer is not defrosting, and frost builds every 7-10 days, freezer warms up and requires a manual defrost (take off back freezer panel and use a hairdryer). Repairman has replaced mother...

I have a Maytag MFI2569VEM1 refrigerator. The fridge was no longer cooling freezer was working fine. I noticed the evaporator coils were icing over. Evaporator Fan appeared to be running normally. After defrosting the fridge everything ran normal for about 5 days and unsurprisingly the same...

My last fridge was deemed to be a sealed system problem, so I purchased a used one to replace it. BAD idea. It worked great to begin with, but noticed there seemed to be more condensation (everything looked fogged up) inside the fridge most of the time. The freezer also seemed to be a little...

I have a Samsung RF265BEAESR/AA I bought in November of 2017. The freezer has been displaying proper temperatures but are obviously wrong because my food thawed. I've talked with Samsung reps whose only solution was to turn the power off and back on lol, which I obviously already tried before...

Background: In September 2020, I had frost in my refrigerator side of my Kitchenaid KSF26C7XYY00 (Side by Side built in 2011). The freezer side was working properly. I had a appliance technician look at it and he stated it was the Thermistor (W10323459). It worked fine for about a month and...

Hello guys, I have a frigidaire top freezer refrigerator which is causing issues for a month now. Both, freezer is not making ice and fridge compartment is way less cooling than it used to. Checked the timer is running fine, fan and compressor seem to be working too. What's peculiar is the...

Hi All - Samsung RF28HDEDBSR/AA refrigerator, purchased in the fall of 2015 from Sears. I've had the issue of frost buildup in the ice maker for the last couple years, have to put it in the manual Fd for about 20 minutes and the buildup can be easily picked off, then it works fine for a few...

My Whirlpool ED5FVGXWS07 refrigerator is 8 years old. I notice the problem on Wednesday (6/10). The drinks in the refrigerator were noticeably warmer than normal. My refrigerator and freezer don't digitally tell me the temperature, so I have no idea what "normal" was. I always kept the unit on...

I have a GE side-by-side refrigerator, model GSHS5KGXSS, which has frost build-up in the ice chute. It started ~9 months ago and was very minor, with just a little bit of frost in the chute. About a couple months ago, I replaced the door flap (the original flap was wavy & brittle, not making a...

Hello all, Every two weeks I have to defrost my fridge: Please open here the IMGUR link to see more images to kind of see what the frost inside looks like. In this case the fan was not clogged and I deattached the back panel in my fridge because the air circulation was not right. But in this...

Hello, I have an old Sears/Kenmore Coldspot refrigerator that serves primarily as a beer fridge and lives in my garage. Lately it has not been cooling properly. I've done some troubleshooting and found a few things: Thick frost is building up in the back of the freezer on the evaporator...

We have a GE Artica side by side refrigerator that is 11 years old. The freezer is cool but not cold. The refrigerator section seems like it is ok. Some of the food was frozen but some was thawed out. I removed all the food and now the back panel is half way covered in a thick frost. There is...

My GE freezer keeps having the same issue. I've tried both suggestions from this forum. I have replaced both the defrost heater as well the thermostat control. When I take the back cover off the coils are covered in ice. I've done this 3 times now defrosting then replacing....It works for...

Several months back the Fridge started making noise. I poked around and determined there was frost at the back of the freezer and around the fan cover. Took off the cover and blasted the area with a hair dryer and the noise went away for a month or so. Now it's back. The dryer trick only lasts a...

Just recently (~a week ago) I started noticing frost buildup in the freezer compartment of my fridge/freezer combo (freezer on top). I thought nothing of it until last weekend when I opened the fridge and it was notably warmer than usual. I opened up the freezer and there was a lot more frost...

I have a GE side by side. Last week I noticed the back of the freezer was frosted over. I removed the back panel and discovered the coils were frosted and iced over. I called a repair company and they said the defrost heater needed to be replaced. I found it online for a lot cheaper than they...
