Possible Causes
Dirty condenser coils, Weak compressor, Low refrigerant charge from small leak, Evaporator fan not moving air
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the unit before cleaning or removing panels.
- Verify settings: Confirm the temperature is set to the desired level and not in a higher storage mode.
- Clean condenser: Remove the rear lower panel and thoroughly clean the condenser coils with a soft brush and vacuum.
- Check fans: With the panel off, briefly plug in the unit and ensure both the condenser fan and evaporator fan run when the compressor is on. Unplug again before touching.
- Door seal: Inspect the door gasket for gaps or tears. Replace if it does not seal tightly all around.
- Observe frost pattern: Remove the interior rear panel and check the evaporator coil. If only a small section frosts or there is no frost, a sealed system issue (leak or weak compressor) is likely and requires a professional technician.
