The freezer side of the works fine but the refrigerator side is not getting cold. I checked the ports from the freezer and they were all frosted up so I cleaned them out, no cold air is coming in from the ports. The evaperator fan in the freezer is working fine but still no air coming into the refrigerator.

Need help!!

Below the evaporator fan is the evaporator coils. Remove the back cover in the freezer to observe the frost pattern. stopped up? clear? ice in one spot . frost everywhere.


If the evaporator coils behind the back panel of the freezer are icing up because of auto defrost failure that will stop the circulation of cold air and eventually affect the freezer too. You have the evaporative defrost control. It senses when to defrost based on how many times and for how long the door is opened. It's more energy efficient but there does seem to be lots of problems with the board. If your manual tells you how to put it in manual defrost you can test your heater and defrost thermostat.
