Food is soft or thawing while the fridge still works. Often a fan motor, defrost or sealed-system problem.
Thick frost on the back wall points to a failed defrost heater, thermostat or control board.
Dirty condenser coils, a weak condenser fan or a bad door seal make the freezer work all day.
A frozen or clogged defrost drain sends melt water out of the freezer and onto the floor.
Grinding, rattling or buzzing from the evaporator fan, condenser fan or compressor.
Torn gaskets and sagging doors let warm, humid Miami air in and cause frost and freezer burn.
A stuck damper, bad sensor or faulty control freezes everything solid and wastes energy.
No lights and no cooling. We check power, the start relay and the control board.

Most often the evaporator fan has stopped or the coil is iced over because the defrost system failed. Both are repairable. Avoid opening the freezer and call us.
Heavy frost usually means the defrost heater, defrost thermostat or control board has failed, or the door gasket lets humid air in.
Keep the door closed. A full freezer keeps food frozen for about 48 hours and a half-full one for about 24 hours.
If the freezer is less than 10–12 years old and the repair costs less than half the price of a new one, repair usually makes sense. We will tell you honestly after the diagnosis.
