Without a posted make and model number, it is hard to say. You need to unplug the unit from the power for a couple of minutes and then plug it back in to see if it resets
Do an old fashioned dethaw of your icemaker. Remove food in compartment, unplug or turn off freezer. Leave doors closed, and get a thick towel and a pot of boiling water. Place the towel under the pot, close the door, and let the heat from the pot warm up that frozen freezer vent. That will clear the ice so the fan can draw cold air out into the freezer
the problem is that the compressor is not working
call a technician for a proper diagnosis
and it is not a pressure sound but a vacuum sound as the door when closed drops the temp inside the unit and that creates a vacuum making the door temporarily hard to open
Turn it off, defrost it for a couple of days """""with the door open""""", restart it with door closed and see if it starts freezing again after about 2-3 hours, if so, then the draw unit works, that indicates the defrost cycle needs to be reset or one of the defrost elements has failed causing the rest no to do anything. Any probs call me on 08 9523 0552 Russ
Sounds like frost bulidup from door being left open warm air gets in making frost and ice. Need to turn off for 24hrs or so to let all the ice melt compleatey then turn back on keep door closed run for 24hrs check Temp. shoud be about 0 to -5 Deg. if good start using.
The on/off switch is only for the alarm. Some people do not want the buzzer to sound for them. If your buzzer is going off then the temperature in the freezer is too warm. It usually means the door was not closed all the way or there is a malfunction in the cooling system. Check the door and seal, make sure it is closing all the way around. If it is and the alarm does not stop on it's own then you will need service done on the unit.
this is usually an indication of a temp. problem you need to check the seal around the lid,make sure there is not gaps and or the door was not left open.
if the door was not closed correctly for a while then a lot of condensation will be accumulated on the freezer coils.
then when going into defrost it melts this ice/frost and overflows the pan or container under the machine which relies on evaporation to dispel of the water.
empty the pan under the refrigerator if you can, then give it another day, it will get back to normal.
if you already checked this and think
it is a different problem then let me know, i will help you figure it out. Mike
