Last time it happened the frig was too old to put any more money into it.
Earlier in it's life I replaced the defrost timer. It was only working every
other cycle. Without a manual I wouldn't have known the timer didn't use the
same contacts for each cycle. It's the only thing I replaced on the frig in
25 years.
