Hello John, thank you for your question. There are a few parts we would recommend testing. The evaporator fan motor, damper assembly. You can also check the gasket to be sure you are getting a tight seal with the cabinet. Too much warm air into the freezer will cause frost buildup. I hope this helps.

I have a brand new fridge. The temperatures are perfect in freezer and fridge. But frost builds up in the freezer. The gaskets have been checked. I have no idea about these things, but I read that a drain line that freezes up might cause this issue. Any suggestions would help. We are not getting answers from where we purchased the unit. Thanks

Hello John, Thank you for the question. You can check the drain to see if it is frozen over or of there is a frozen puddle on the floor of the freezer. In most cases the frost build up indicates it is not going into the defrost cycle properly. The defrost cycle on this model is controlled by the Main Control Board. We hope this helps.

Lights inside refrigerator not working
I used a flat-head screwdriver to pop out the old light rocker switch. Then, I unplugged the wires, plugged them into the new light rocker switch, and then popped the new switch into the hole. That's it! Lights began working again.

Light Switch broke
An easy job for smaller hands. Removed the two bolts holding the light cover. Removed two electrical connections from the old switch by pinching the retaining clip,removed the switch, snapped in the new one and re-attached the connectors. Your online illustrations helped me to know that the plastic housing for the light switch would only swing down so far and was not intended to be removed. Saved me from breaking that plastic cover's tabs. This home repair saved me more than 5 times the cost of hiring a professional to do it. Very happy homeowner.

The light switch on the refridgerator broke - no light.
Once I saw the replacement part I understood how to pry out the switch with a small screwdriver. Then just unplug the old one, plug in the new one and pop it into place.

The PartSelect site made it easy to correctly identify the correct part, it was inexpensive, and the shipping was fast.

I'm very pleased!
