- evaporator coil icing and defrost issues
- door gasket wear and air leaks
- condensing-unit compressor failures
Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Before booking a repair, confirm the thermostat setting, that the door seals fully, and that vents inside aren't blocked by over-packed items. Also, listen for the evaporator fan running when the door's closed, since a silent fan is a common first sign. Past that point, it's usually a defrost heater, sensor, or sealed-system fault, and diagnosing those needs a multimeter and refrigeration training, not guesswork.
