I thought it was fixed next day unit was not cooling at all, removed food, ran diagnostic check control panel "bargraph", checked ok. Removed panel in back of freezer no ice on coils, coils warm, all fans running and compressor cycling but cycles are short, condensor is hot to touch. All copper tubes in or out of compressor warm. Need help? Thanks

I see you can order them together, their is definetly a rattle, and debrie (dark brown particles like coffee) coming out of the assembly but not sure if the other component rattles
