The freezer was cool but not cold. Cleaned the coils (they were dirty) but after 6 hours, the freezer is still not freezing. Does it tkae some time to get to the freezing temp or is there still a problem?
It will usually take 24 hours for the fridge/freezer to adjust fully to the temperature settings.
It is also possible that the defrost timer cycle was going into or just coming out of the defrost cycle, thus it could have delayed the start of the cooling cycle, so give it a little time to determine if the freezer is working.
If, not freezing after 24 hours, let us know and we'll go from there.
It takes longer for an empty freezer to get and hold temperatures, so it is always a good idea to have the freezer loaded with bread (thirft store bargains are cheap) or jugs of 3/4 full water (water takes longer to freeze than bread thou).
Hope you find this very helpful and best regards!
