Blocked Airflow: Overpacking the freezer with food can block the air vents, preventing cold air from circulating properly. Fix: Reorganize items to ensure clear space around all internal vents and fans. Dirty Condenser Coils: On most refrigerator-freezer combinations, the coils (located on the back or bottom of the unit) dissipate heat. If covered in dust and debris, they can't release heat efficiently, causing the freezer to work harder and underperform. Fix: Unplug the unit and use a vacuum with a crevice attachment to clean the coils thoroughly. Faulty Door Seal (Gasket): A worn-out, torn, or dirty door seal allows warm air to leak into the freezer, causing temperature fluctuations and frost buildup. Fix: Check the seal for damage and clean it. You can test the seal by closing a piece of paper in the door; if it pulls out with little resistance, the seal may need replacing. Incorrect Temperature Setting: The thermostat might be set too high (too warm) accidentally. The ideal temperature for a freezer is 0°F (-18°C). Fix: Verify the temperature setting and adjust it to a colder setting if necessary.
