The freezer is woking fine just the frig is not getting cold. I have control box apart and have tested thermostat with ohm meter on Rx1 setting I am getting a reading of.9. What might be suggestions of why frig is not getting cold?

Does the fan inside the freezer work?

Did you clean the condenser coils?

Does the fan next to the compressor work?

Remove the rear panel inside the freezer and check how the evaporator coils are covered with snow.

The condenser coils are showed as #730 on the diagram.

How much frost is on the coils?

Coils have been cleaned and the Evaporator coils are completely covered and thick with ice. I unplugged last night to defrost.

It might be a problem with the defrost system. If it will reappear, let us know.

Give it 24 hours since you plugged it back. All panels must be in place.
