I have the same fridge that seems to (I'm guessing defrost mode) shut down, then not cold back up until the food spoils. I put an ice cube in the freezer and it'll be fine for days, then I'll go out and check it, and the cube is gone. It's in my garage right now with nothing in it and I want to fix it and sell it. Any ideas?
