Freezer staying icy an wet water leaking out
For model number AFD2535FES11
Hello Marsha, thank you for the question. A frozen, wet, and leaking freezer is caused by a blocked or frozen defrost drain. The drain hole is located behind the rear panel inside the freezer, which allows melted ice to drain into a pan underneath, where it evaporates. If this drain is blocked by ice, debris, or sludge, the water has nowhere to go but to pool at the bottom, freeze into a sheet of ice, and eventually leak onto your floor. Carefully remove the ice using warm water, a turkey baster, or a steamer. Do not use a heat gun or hair dryer directly on the plastic components as it can cause damage. Pour warm water into the drain hole to ensure it flows freely. If the seal around the freezer door is damaged, warm, humid air will enter, creating excessive frost that overwhelms the drain system. We hope this is what you were looking for!
Pressed in the end of the filter cover, lowered it down part way. Twisted the old filter 1/4 turn and removed it. Set in the sink to drain. Inserted new filter and twisted it to lock. closed cover. Done. Total time @ 1 Minute.
I knew the chances of all the freon leaking out was unlikely so I looked at the wiring to the compressor and there was a capacitor and a starter/overload so i figured I would start there. I went on line and found the parts at this site and they were less than the minimum service call charge for a service tech so I figured what the heck let's give her a shot so I did give it a shot. I ordered the parts and they were there in less time than a service tech could come out and i installed the parts and guess what for 90.00 in parts and 15 minutes in time I repaired my refrigerator. Thanks guys, It took less time to order the parts than it did to make the repair so thanks, your website rocks and is very well designed so my hat is off to you guys!
Having seen this problem before in other equipment so I had an idea where to look. Problem: the automatic defrost function was not operating. Looking through openings in the back panel of the freezer compartment, you could see the evaporator coils and fins were a solid chuck of ice. There are three logical components to check. Heater element, thermostat (located just above the evaporator) and a relay on the control board (located in the fridge control panel). Checked the heater with an ohm meter -- OK. The thermostat closes the circuit at around 20 degrees and opens at around 32 degrees. Pulled out the thermostat, wiring, fan unit. Everything unplugs, unscrews, and unclips, don't cut wires. Put the whole assembly in a friends freezer for an hour or so to see if the thermostat closes -- OK. Problem had to be with the control board. Replaced control board, reprogrammed it per included instruction. Everything is working again.
