How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Do not puncture deeper into the liner; refrigerant lines may be behind it.
Steps:
- Inspect crack: Determine if the crack is superficial or deep. If you see insulation, it is more serious.
- Seal minor cracks: Clean and dry the area, then apply a food-safe appliance epoxy or liner repair kit according to instructions.
- Monitor for moisture: Watch for ongoing condensation or frost around the repair. Persistent issues may indicate deeper damage.
Note: Extensive liner damage may not be economically repairable and can affect insulation and efficiency.
