I have the same problem, but so far, I have no resolution to the problem. My model however; is MCUF88W. There is a 1-888-775-0202 telephone number, but when I called, there is a busy tone. I need a solution to the problem. The freezer is only two years for crying out loud. No solution here, SORRY. HELP!!!!!!!!

Has this happened suddenly? Look at the shelves to see if there is a frost line. If the shelves that also carry the Freon appear to have a frost line your freezer may have a Freon leak. If there is a Freon leak it will be better to begin looking for a replacement freezer. Let me know what you see, Thanks Sea Breeze

Bought the same freezer from Home Depot, door would not open did find with a bit of detective work that if you place your fingers between the door gasket and the shell of the freezer you can break the glue type seal then door works fine. You must go across top and down both sides.

If You run Your finger in between the rubber seal that is resting on the freezer and the frame of the door , the rubber seal will break lose. When you open the door the seal is attache to the door.
Just had the same problem after unboxing.
Simple, just be sure to do the entire door.

sounds like you need a new door gasket

Perhaps the power outage, was caused by your freezer? When you think a reset would help, the run light should come on, after a little while. But perhaps only the thermostat is defect. Be aware there can be so many causes, and none has to be related to the power outage, for your freezer not to work. It would be virtually impossible to see what is wrong, from a distance. Better try to bring the food to a working fridge and call a tech to solve the problem.

Typically inside freezer on floor.

coolant time for new one be careful of food could have defrosted lots times

May need a new evaporator or defrost mech is bad..checout utube

You are slowly loosing the freon in the system.

I think if it is full of food I would call for service instead of using a website that may be able to help or not.

read the user manual the light may only come on when the compressor is working talk with a service agent for the unit and ask them
