Dennis S Salem, , MO January 13, 2017 The freezer compartment was frosting up and the evaporator was iced over the fan was loud I first changed the main control board and de-iced the evaporator coils. It helped on some of the issues but the evaporator iced up in a few weeks again, so I retrofitted a timer and relay device to keep the evaporator coil clear of ice build up. That controlled that problem but the noisy fan and frost build up in the freezer compartment itself continued, so then I put in a new evaporator fan assembly and that has cleared up the rest of the issues. I suspect that I could probably remove my retrofitted defrosting device and hook it up to the original configuration and it would probably stay defrosted. Thank for this users forum, it helped steer me in the right direction!
