    I can actually kick the area near the thermostat control and it starts to work again. Problem appears to be a malfunctioning thermostat.

Just bought one that a repair man had already been through with similar issues. i wanted it as a fridge so this was no problem. took me about 5 minutes to figure out the reason it wasn't freezing though...the switch at the top that turns the light on when you open it also turns on the fan when you close the door. the door however sits just a tad too low to fully engage the switch. put a piece of tape over the switch and let it cool for 24 hours. chances are this will solve your problem!

Freezer has stopped freezing

Hi,

Many times a freezer and/or refrigerator do not work right because of a dirty condenser coil...there are also many other things that can go wrong.

If your refrigerator is running but warm, then...

Check out these tips that I wrote about that... it is a great place to start trouble shooting your unit...and something that you can do rather then calling a repair person to do a simple thing for you...

Running non stop!

Sadly these old freezers use way too much electricity. You will be better off junking this one and purchasing a good used or brand new one.

Humming

A hum followed by a click sound is an indication of a failure at the compressor. Possibly the compressor motor has gone into a locked rotor condition. A locked rotor condition can be checked using an ammeter. The name plate on the compressor will have a rating after LRA. If the ammeter reading is equal to the LRA rating the compressor is done. If it is a reading of about 80% of the LRA (locked rotor amperage) it is possible that a relay or capacitor has failed which is replaceable.

Freezer not freezing food even at highest setting

If the unit is running continuously and not maintaining the temperature cold enough the system may have a leak. If it is NOT running continuously the problem could be in the temperature control.
