    • Appliantology Live Dojo, Saturday, 4/27/2024 @10 AM ET
      27 April 2024 02:00 PM Until 03:00 PM
      5  
      All Appliantology tech members are invited to join in this workshop on all things Appliantological. 
      We have a special session planned for this one. Instead of the usual Show 'n Tell on a technical topic, we're going to post tech sheets in the comments to this Calendar Event (scroll down to see what's posted so far) and ask specific questions that can only be answered by reading the tech sheet. If you at least try to answer the questions beforehand, you'll get a lot more out of it. The tech sheet and the questions are posted in the comments section below.
      Your mission, if you should choose to accept it, is to check out the questions for each one and try to answer them ahead of time. Then come to the Dojo to see how well you did! 
      Who: This workshop is only available to tech members at Appliantology.
      When: Saturday, April 27 @10:00 AM Eastern Time.
      Where: Online via Zoom
      How:
      Click here to go to the forum topic with the registration link. If you're interested, register now. Arrive a couple minutes early to make sure your connection is working. Set a reminder for yourself for this workshop so you don’t miss it.  And check out past workshops here: https://appliantology.org/announcement/33-webinar-recordings-index-page/

I meant excessive frost, fan blade grinding on it. The puzzling part is - its been going on for few months, but no temperature issues. Visually , Only vented part of evap cover (fan output) and air duct that leads to icemaker are covered with frost. But when I hand press against Evap cover I hear frost crunching behind. I suspect intermittent defrost (board, thermistor, or poor connection) or slow fan, or air leak somewhere. Seal itself is good and no frost around it. Fridge was under warranty up to few months ago, and fellows from Sears defrosted it couple times not solving anything.

soo... it had Defrost problems for a few months, but Sears didn't fix it ...

After it's manually defrosted, it may take up to a few weeks for problems to re-appear.

Pictures of Evaporator Frost pattern would confirm it
