Kenmore explains that in a cold room the thermostat in a standard refrigerator can sense the cabinet as cold enough, so the compressor stays off and food in the freezer can thaw. Source: Kenmore Livemore - Extra Storage: Garage Ready Fridges
What Kenmore Says to Check First
- Freezer thawing in a cold garage. Kenmore says a standard refrigerator in a room below about 45°F may not run its compressor enough, and recommends a garage-ready model built for a wide temperature range. Source: Kenmore Livemore - Extra Storage: Garage Ready Fridges
Signs Your Kenmore Ice Maker Needs a Technician

Freezer and Ice Maker Notes for Mercedes, TX
Most ice maker calls in Mercedes come down to the same handful of causes: water supply and pressure, a frozen fill tube, the water inlet valve, freezer temperature and the ice maker assembly itself.
Texas has no separate appliance repair license; under the Plumbing License Law, appliance dealers and their employees may install and service appliances (other than water heaters) without a plumbing license when hooking up to existing openings with a code-approved appliance connector, while other gas or water piping work generally requires a plumbing license. Source: Plumbing License Law, Tex. Occ. Code ch. 1301, §1301.053 (Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners)
In Texas, you can check a license with the Texas plumbing Public License Search or report a problem to the Texas Attorney General, Consumer Protection Division.
