1 Why is my freezer thawing in just the middle?
I purchased a Frigidaire refrigerator in 2017 .18.5 cubic ft freezer on top refrigerator. Kept in storage for one yr in box. Put in new kitchen worked for 2 months now everything in middle of freezer is thawed but food on both sides still frozen,even ice cubes. Lost several hundred in food so far. Defies physics…Frididare customer service is completely useless. Turned setting to high still doing this.
Ist dies eine gute Frage?

Hi @minnie2019camp ,
Can you hear the evaporator fan running in the freezer compartment?
You may have to place an ear against the fridge to hear it
If the compressor is running the fan will be running and it will stop when a door (either freezer or refrigerator) is opened and start again when the door is closed (the compressor will keep running as long as the temperature has not reached the set temp).
Is the temp in the refrigerator compartment OK, i.e. approx 38 deg. F (or 3 deg. C)
My thinking is that if the evaporator fan is not running then cold air will not be being distributed throughout the freezer and refrigerator.
The freezer will still be icy cold as that is where the evaporator unit is (this is where the very cold air is produced by the evap fan blowing over the evap unit) but the cold air in the freezer compartment may not be evenly distributed as it will just be cold air "falling" down across the evap unit.
Also the fridge section may not be down to the correct level as the cold air is not being blown down from the freezer section.
Just a thought

The refridgerator section is fine.fan in freezer runs you can hear it and feel it when it kicks on.

Hi @minnie2019camp ,
Can you feel the air coming out of the 4 vents in the panel at the back of the freezer compartment?
