Possible Causes

High ambient humidity, Mullion heater turned off (if selectable), Failed door frame heater, Gasket not sealing properly

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the refrigerator before accessing any heater wiring.

Steps:

  • Check settings: Some Sharp models allow turning energy saver (mullion heater off) on or off. Disable energy saver in very humid environments.
  • Inspect gaskets: Ensure door gaskets seal well to minimize moist air infiltration.
  • Wipe moisture: Regularly wipe condensation to prevent mold.
  • Heater check (advanced): If condensation persists along the door frame, a door/mullion heater may have failed and should be tested and replaced by a technician.
