Ron for Model Number RF31FMESBSR/AA-0000 The freezer is set to -8 and the display states it should be -8 but the actual temp is 38. The fridge is set to 38 and display says 38 but the actual temp is 50. The display does not seem to function correctly as I can’t enter self-diagnosis (holding top left and right buttons for 10 seconds). There are occasional tones that appear to be random which I assume occur when the unit is trying to do something. I’ve checked the coils and cleaned them but all looks good underneath. The fan between the coils and condenser is working. There is about 1 tsp of water in the drip tray, I assume this is water but it is possible it is a very lightweight oil. No leaks or notable frost. I have unplugged the unit for 10 minutes and after plugging in the display shows the correct internal temps 38/50 but oddly the displayed temps slowly (over an hour time) went down to -8/38, as if the unit was cooling but the actual internal temps did not change from 38/50. I am leaning towards the temp sensor and or one of the mainboards or a relay? I don’t want to assume it’s the condenser. Any advice is greatly appreciated!
Answer Ron, With the unit warming up but apparently running you would need to take a look at the evaporator coils inside the unit behind the rear cover. I would suspect there is not a frost pattern from the top to the bottom of the evaporator telling us there has been a leak in the system. You would then need to call a licensed refrigeration tech to diagnos and repair. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Friday, January 31, 2020
