I have a Kenmore chest type frost free freezer

You may have a leak of refrigerant, you may have a warm air leak when the lid is closed, or you may just need to defrost it manually. use heat ONLY, do NOT poke at the ice or frost with anything

normally it is an ice build up on the inside. Suggest overnight defrost to sort this problem out.

You should unplugged and let all the ice melt and help it with a hair dryer.

I would use a hairdryer to defrost the door secton with the other part closed off or covered.

is this a chest freezer? Thick frost around top? try defrosting unit. DO NOT scrape the ice. Very important to remove drain plug to remove water or frost will very rapidly redeposit

Frost Free Freezer have an automatic defrost, which is essentially a heating element which melts any ice. If your door seals are in poor condition or something is preventing the door from sealing the ambient air may be melting the ice more than the drain can accommodate. Check the drain in the bottom of the freezer. Humidity can also cause more water to accumulate, especially if the door seals are not sealing.

first just take it out and clean that one carefully .And then set correctly and observe it,s working condition.then also it's not working means show it to ur near by worker those who repairs it

Hi, It sounds like the defrost drain is plugged. UNPLUG the freezer. Remove the rear panel and you will be able to find the drain hole and remove the ice. Once you get the iceout of the drain. try and fluxh it with hot water (A baisting serigne works great). Sometines they plug up with duse from underneath. I hope this helps you. Please let me know if I can assist you further.

Thanks
Vic

I quick way to test the door seal is take a dollar bill close the door on it if you can pull the dollar out with little resistance the seal needs to be replaced. That is what I am thinking is wrong with unit.

Not much you can do except ensure you have a tight seal and not to open it more than you have to.
