Repair Skill Level:

2 Screwdrivers

Failure Symptoms: Ice and/or frost buildup is on the rear panel or floor inside the freezer (depending on the style and placement of the evaporator coil).

How to test: Measure continuity through the heater using a multimeter. No continuity will show the heater is faulty.

Repair Tip: Use only a hair dryer and hot water to thaw the evaporator coil. Never use anything sharp to chip or pry at the ice or frost.

  • GE Side by side Freezer/Grudge Too Warm

    Our GE side by side was running too hot (11° freezer/48° fridge), so after some research, we ended up replacing this piece and it has been working fine since then! Tried to replace a thermistor first, but that didn't help, so we removed the interior back panel from the freezer, saw the unit was completely iced over, thawed it with a mini heater for a few hours (on the floor in front of the door with towels under it). This arrived in 2 days (as we paid for), was 75% less than the same part from Sears, and has been a life saver. The repair company wanted $500 just to look at it and we fixed it for $30!

    Would have been a 5 stars if the screw holes fitted perfectly the refrigerator mounting.
