Tricia Sipos for Model Number MFU20F3GW7 Frigidaire UPRIGHT I BOUGHT THIS BRAND NEW IN @ 2000 ish . It has been plugged in my garage in the same spot since I brought it home in . My garage is not climate controlled, live in Missouri. hot summers & cold winters. I have had no problems with it until the last year or so. I opened it one day and everything was thawing, I removed the food, unplugged it and plugged it back in the next day. It worked just fine for a month or so and then did it again. I repeated doing this a few times and then just kept water jugs in it for cooler ice so no loss when stops working. What would cause it to work for a time and then stop ? when working it freezes solid with no problems. I would like to fix it but where should I start ? What should I do first? much thanx...

Answer Tricia & Steve, Thanks for the question!!! Sounds like you have a defrost issue. Three items to check, the timer, the defrost thermostat, and the heater.
