Wife just opened refrig door, and came into contact with the seal on the centerline door, was very warm to the touch.. I checked the centerline wall, ran my hand along the outside of it and it was too hot to keep my finger on it.. checked the interior part of the wall, is cool on refrig side, cold on freezer side.. Ok, so what could be causing this overheat along the exterior part of this wall....
Condenser coils dissipating heat.

sounds like you have a defrosting iss\ue here, ther is aduct on the left sideof refig wall perhaps 3/4 the way down usually behind one of the crispers its frozen over with ice not allpwing fresh food air to properly circulate, l;ook to the bottom of your freezer on the back wall is there ice on the panel?? if so your not deforsting properly there satech sheet underthe kickplate showing basic wiring and trouble shoooting guide as well

Sounds like your condenser fan isn't working...Take the back cover off to see if there's anything stuck in the fan blades. Usually when the fan stops, the compressor & tubing that runs between the doors get really hot. You may also want to clean your condenser coils.

you can try to repalce the "overload relay", with the model numberlook up the correct part. i would also check with oyour manual perhaps you have an extended warr. on your compressor assembly( comes with a new overload relay)..

Hi, Sometines you can stretch the seal. T4ry and put a rolled up piece of paper towel and stick it behind the seal in the area that is not touching. If the seal is not touching in the corners, You might be able to twist the door back in shape. If the seal is open at the bottom, pull the top corner of the door toward you while holding the bottom corner against the refrigerator..
If neither of these ideas work, you will need to replace the seal.
Please let me know if I can assist you further.
Vic

Check the coils underneath the fridge. Check the coils in back if accessible. Clean the coils if covered in excessive dust it may help. Make sure the vent on fridge side isn't blocked or plugged.
