SOURCE: I have a Kelvinator 2
Hi,
he reasons the air is not moving is usually two reasons
The first reason is pretty simple to fix, you simply replace the air circulator
and things are good again.
The second reason can be more difficult.
1. The timing device that runs the defrost cycle of the refrigerator is
defective.
2. The heater coil that melts the water is shorted or not working
Usually the first thing to check is the heater coil. If there is resistance
through the coil then most likely it is still good.
The timing device can be an advanced defrost control board or a mechanical
timing device.
If the heater coil checks out to be good then the problem should be the timer.
For most situations, unplugging the refrigerator and allowing it to defrost on
it's own will get you going temporarily, till parts can be shipped to you. That
will melt the ice and give you a few days or a couple of weeks till it ices up
to the point where it will not work again.
So you can see here, the problem can usually be traced to one of three things.
By methodically checking these parts you can isolate your
problem and fix it.

The other end of the drain is located in the back of the machine. Remove the cover in the back that covers the compressor, condensor fan motor etc, the drain pan is located back there, and the drain is usually somewhere near the fan motor so that the heat from the compressor can evaporate what water does drain. The best way to fix the problem is to unplug the machine and let it thaw for 24-48 hours. Its a pain but its the easiest and most thorough.

Good morning Barbara, from what you are describing it sounds like the evaporator drain is clogged. You need to empty the freezer and remove any access panels to get to the drain. Get a bowl of hot water and a turkey baster,then use the baster to force the water into the drain to clear the blockage. Not real familiar with that model,so check under the vegetable compartment to see if the drain is under it first. Hope that helps.
