Door gasket leak allowing moist air in, Defrost system not operating, Fan not circulating air, Unit installed in very humid environment
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the unit and protect the floor from meltwater.
Steps:
- 1. Manually defrost: Open the door and allow ice to melt, using towels to absorb water. Use a hair dryer on low if needed, keeping it away from plastic.
- 2. Check gasket: Replace damaged door gaskets to prevent moist air infiltration.
- 3. Verify fan and defrost: Ensure the evaporator fan and defrost heater (if equipped) are working; repair as needed.
- 4. Reduce humidity: Avoid installing the unit near open doors or humidifiers.
