When to Call for Freezer Repair

  • Freezer runs constantly but stays warm
  • Heavy frost on the back wall or around the door
  • An error code or temperature alarm
  • Food is soft or ice cream will not stay firm

Why Freezers Stop Freezing

Evaporator and condenser fansOne fan moves cold air through the freezer and another cools the condenser. A fan that stops, or one that has frozen in place, is a frequent cause of a freezer that runs but does not freeze.
Defrost systemFrost-free freezers melt frost off the evaporator coil on a timer or a control. When a defrost heater, thermostat or timer fails, the coil ices over, air stops moving and the freezer slowly warms.
Condenser coilsDust on the condenser coils makes the system work harder and run warmer, especially for freezers kept in garages and utility rooms.

What a Freezer Technician Checks

Sealed systemA technician certified for refrigerant handling checks for a leak or a failed compressor when the simpler parts test good. These repairs cost more and are weighed against replacement.
Evaporator coil and defrostOn frost-free models the back panel comes off to look at the coil. A coil packed with frost points to the defrost heater, defrost thermostat, timer or control.
Door gasket and alignmentGaskets are checked for tears and gaps and the door or lid for sag. A poor seal shows up as frost near the opening and long run times.

Troubleshooting first? Start with freezer not freezing or lg freezer not freezing.

Refrigerant and Sealed-System Work

Refrigerant must be recovered before a refrigerator or freezer is scrapped; the final disposer in the disposal chain is responsible for recovery, and some municipalities will not pick up appliances until it has been removed. Source: U.S. EPA - Appliance Disposal

Freezer Repair FAQs: Lynwood, IL

Is my freezer worth fixing?
Compare the repair quote with the price of a comparable new freezer and consider its age. Fans, defrost parts, thermostats and gaskets are usually worth fixing; a compressor or refrigerant repair on an older freezer often is not. Our repair-or-replace guide walks through it.
How long will food stay frozen?
Keep the door closed. Food safety agencies say a full freezer holds its temperature for about two days and a half-full one for about a day if the door stays shut. Use a thermometer, and move food to a working freezer or a cooler with ice if the repair will take longer.
How cold should a freezer be?
Food safety agencies recommend keeping a freezer at 0 degrees Fahrenheit or colder. An appliance thermometer is the most reliable check, since the dial or display shows a setting rather than a measurement.
