The freezer keeps icing up and then the fridge won't keep food cold.
What can I troubleshoot? Thanks.

Hi,

Model#?

Ice?
Clear like an ice cube or white like frost/snow?

Frost would indicate a frost free failure.

Make sure the fan is working. It circulates the cold air to the
refrigerator section. The one in my new Maytag died after about 8
months. I ordered one off the web and put it in myself rather than
take the day off work to meet the repairman.

ice. I will check. Thanks.

G'day,

Clear ice usually takes much longer than the frost to slowly build up
and choke off the air flow from the freezer to the fresh food section.
Ice is more the defrost is working but the defrost water cannot run
away and freezes....maybe a clogged drain.
