Has the problem been slowly developing? Is fan inside freezer compartment running? Can you hear fan and compressor running below or behind refrigerator? Is there a collection of dust under and below refrigerator?

    If you are sure that you followed our solutions and really want an honest answer, yes new is the best option in a case like this. Leaks are hard to find , labor is very expensive and parts are almost the cost of a new refrigerator. To do a compressor change correctly involves a days work. Thank you for your rate here at FIXYA, and if you need anything just drop us a line and we will do our best!...............Sea Breeze

Westinghouse freestyle fridge &freezer work but warm after being turned off fo 90 days

What happens in that 72 hours is the evaporator coil get's so much frost built up on it that the fan in the evap. freezer fan has no where to circulate the cold air (where the cold is produced). Basically you have a restriction between freez/fridg. sections you have defrost problem> It is one of three things d heater,d t stat, or your d timer.I need the model # to tell you what my sugestions would be and where to start.

Why do i have frost on the inside?

frost forms from either the door being left open,a ripped gasket,when warm and cold air meet frost forms,also if the back inside wall of the freezer is frosted up you could have a defrost problem,bad defrost thermostat,heater timer or board depending on the model number.if the warm air got in say overnight you could have a problem with the fridge not getting cold,usually the air ducts freeze up.if it's in the freezer look at the door,you might find ice on the door where the warm air was coming in and also you'll see frozen water droplets on the packages and walls

Fridge warm, freezer has frost on back panel & is defrosting, fans work, just changed defrost thermostat, no air is moving from freezer side to fridge side, drain pan under fridge is dry

this fan needs to run when the compressor runs,check fan blade for being jammed by ice if you have this much ice on back wall as ice will stall motor,if no fan there will be no cool air to refrige compartment also the defrost drain tray will fill with water then freeze over which in turn floods the freezer floor and refrige compartments cause it cannot drain to the pan in the bottom

GE 17.2 freezer on top fridge on bottom. Freezer is cold, but fridge is warm. Help!

Is there any frost buildup on the rear panel inside the freezer? If so you have a defrost problem of a bad defrost heater, defrost thermostat, or defrost timer/ control board. If no frost then you probably have a clogged defrost drain. Remove the rear panel to access drain hole.

I have a Kenmore Cold Spot fridge, freezer on top. Fridge is warm, and freezer keeps freezing up on sides and bottom. I cleaned it all out, defrosted it, and it still freezes up and fridge still won't get...

Is this a self defrost model? Frost inside the freezer could be an air leak around the door gasket. Remove the back panel in the freezer and completely defrost the coils. Is the fan running in the freezer. That will make the frig not be cool. With the door closed peek in the gasket to make sure the light is shutting off, this will warm a frig also.
