Checked the temperature and found it was about 40 degrees. Listened to the freezer and heard a distinct click about every 10 seconds like it was turning on and off. Air going into the freezer is cold. I felt the compressor and it was warm and sounded like it was working. I was thinking possibly the defrost timer but that would be a pure guess on my part. I would appreciate any help you might offer. Thank you, Miles Haanstad Thornton, CO
