A:AnswerA sheet of ice under the bottom drawer in a freezer is likely caused by a clogged or frozen defrost drain, allowing water from the defrost cycle to freeze at the bottom of the freezer instead of draining away. Other common causes include a door that doesn't seal properly, which lets in warm, moist air, or blocked air circulation.
A:AnswerOpen freezer door, remove upper ice maker panel, press on off switch to on, replace panel. Wait one day for ice maker to ice bin. There is no on off for water filter.
A:AnswerCommon causes and how to check
1. Clogged defrost drain
What it is: A tube that carries water from the melted frost to the drain pan.
How it happens: Food particles and debris can clog the drain, causing it to back up.
How to check: Look for the drain hole, usually at the back of the freezer or fridge, and check for clogs. You may need to pull the fridge out to access it.
2. Leaking water line
What it is: The hose that supplies water to the ice maker or water dispenser.
How it happens: The line can become loose, cracked, or damaged over time.
How to check: Pull the fridge out and inspect the water line and its connections for any leaks or drips.
3. Cracked or overflowing drain pan
What it is: A pan at the base of the fridge that collects condensate water for evaporation.
How it happens: It can overflow due to excessive condensation, or it can simply crack and leak.
How to check: Pull the fridge out to locate the drain pan and check for cracks or if it is overflowing.
4. High humidity
What it is: Moisture in the air causing excess condensation to form inside the fridge.
How it happens: The high humidity causes the drain pan to fill up with condensation faster than it can evaporate.
How to check: Feel for excessive condensation on the outside of the fridge. This is more likely to happen in a humid climate

A:AnswerPrice adjustment policies vary by retailer, but many offer a window of either 30 or 90 days to get a price adjustment if an item goes on sale. As long as you have proof of purchase. Hope this helps
A:AnswerYour freezer is likely only dispensing crushed ice because a physical obstruction, like a trapped ice cube or frost, is preventing the mechanism from switching to cubed ice mode. This can be caused by a malfunctioning solenoid, a misaligned metal bar that controls the switch, or a stuck selector switch.
Simple checks and fixes
Check for a stuck ice cube: Remove the ice bucket and check the dispenser's "flap" or "trap door" for any ice cubes that may be lodged in it, say iFixit.
Clear any ice blockages: Inspect the ice chute for any other ice buildup or obstructions, and clear them out,
Reset the dispenser: Unplug the refrigerator for a few minutes to reset the control board.
Check the metal bar: When reinstalling the ice bucket, make sure the metal bar on the bottom is not sliding under the "stirrup" or lever that activates the cubed ice mode.
