The compressor is running, the condenser and evaporator fans are running. I cleaned the condenser cools and temperature in the freezer still won’t get below 40 degrees. There is a little bit of frost on evaporator coil, but it is not frozen over. Any ideas what else I can look for? Thanks Randy

Hi @rstewart , , What is the make and model number of the refrigerator? Is the compressor running continually? Does the fridge have its’ own temp display or are you using a thermometer to measure the temp? If the fridge has its’ own temp display, can you place a thermometer in the freezer and see what temp it displays? The reason I ask is that frost does not occur at temps above 32 deg. F so I’m wondering if the temp reading is correct. The evaporator unit may be below freezing and that is why there is frost on it but the rest of the cabinet is not getting down to that temp even with the evap fan running. Check the door seals to make sure that they are sealing properly. (place a sheet of paper between the door and the frame and see how hard it is to pull out when the door is closed - there should be resistance to it being pulled out - do this in a lot of places around the door frame)
