What Makes Frigidaire Ice Maker Repairs Different
Frigidaire refrigerators run a defrost cycle where a defrost heater melts frost off the evaporator and the water drips to a drain pan. Source: Frigidaire - Refrigerators Noise Guide
On dispenser models the bin uses an auger that can freeze in place when ice melts and refreezes, and a rotated auger has to be realigned in 45-degree steps before the bin will seat. Source: Frigidaire - Refrigerators - No Ice
