How to Defrost Refrigerator Defrost Timer Problem

Water Running in refrigerator from Freezer

clogged drain line somewhere in fridge plumbing

I know the minimum operating temp for many refrigerators is around 33 F (about a degree above freezing or so). This is due to the refrigerant gas within the compressor and the fact that it is not stable at low temps. Typically, a refrigerator's minimum ambient temp should be 50 degrees F (10 degrees C).

I don't know if there is a whole lot you can do. The refrigerator really wasn't built to work in such cold weather. You may either have to relocate it, put a heat source near it or look into a special freezer that is *supposedly* able to operate in much colder ambient temps.

hi
in this unit it is actually called and adaptive defrost

take doown the control center
and then take off the deflector on the side wall
the defrost control is inside the deflector

There is a fan in this refrigerator between the freezer and the fridge and it is possible this fan has stopped or something has stopped it from running.You will need to get it repaired.
CHeck and see how hot the space between you fridge and feezes is and if it's real hot that's your problem.
It's either dirty or maybe a rodent got into this motor and stopped it from running.

also check defrost timer,defrost thermostat. In most newer models the timer has been replaced by an electronic control board. If the heater and thermostat are ok it’ll be the control.

Try replacing the washer in the solenoid valve. Sometimes it leaks by enough to freeze in the dispensing tube.

the wires should be behind a cap that covers the hole for the water tube on the pack panel in the freezer.
