Same problem as many posters.. sorry...
I have read many of the posts on freezers not dropping to 0 degrees. and I have started to TS but need more guidance...

1. First noticed major issue when freezer alarm went off and all the contents were 30-40 degrees (melted Icecream, partial unfrozen bread)

2. turned temp to 7 (1 of 7) highest setting...no real change.

3. pulled out freezer did a unplug test (unplug for 30 seconds plug back in and wait to hear if compressor starts after the loud click) my compressor did not start indicating it was functioning properly?

4. opened freezer took out 50% of contents removed rear cover looked at coils (my first impression was 1/2 coils frosted) however the freezer was not at 45+ degrees. I noticed fan was running ok.

5. Closed-up freezer left 4 hours checked and now coils had nice even pattern and temp had dropped to 19. Left overnight and temp has dropped to 10 degrees steady now and coils are still nicely frosted.

So now what?? what else can I check? Hate to scrap this freezer only after 3 years. What a waste to our landfills!
thanks for your help let me know if you need picts!
