The motor will make noise (the blades hitting the ice) for a while and then it stops, resulting in the shut down of both refridgerator and freezer. I've replaced the control kit and the evap motor and still have the same problem after about 10 days of running. Any suggestion as to how to correct the ice problem? Thanks.

If the heater and thermostat are ok it’ll be the adaptive defrost control Part 23 on the diagram of your controls. Replacement parts for FRG FRS26R4AW6 \| AppliancePartsPros.com
