Freezer interior temperature fluctuates widely, some items thaw and refreeze

Safety: Unplug before accessing fan or sensors.

• Organize contents: Ensure air vents at the back and sides are not blocked by packages or baskets.
• Check fan operation: Listen for the evaporator fan when the compressor is running. If it stops intermittently or is noisy, test and replace the fan motor.
• Verify sensor position: Make sure the temperature sensor is correctly located and not buried behind food or touching the evaporator.
• Monitor with thermometer: Use a separate thermometer to verify actual temperature stability. If fluctuations persist despite good airflow, the control board or sensors may need professional diagnosis.
