How can I stop my freezer coils from freezing up in my fridge?

Answer by  Patty (195)

I had this problem myself. Try cleaning out your freezer and defrosting, even if it is an automatic defroster. Let sit over night, and pull your refrigerater out and clean the dust from the back of it and underneath it. Then plug fridge back up and make sure you don't overstuff your freezer.

If you have frozen freezer coils on your fridge you probably have your fridge temperature dial turne down to low, try turning up a notch or two, it may help.

Freezer coils tend to freeze up when the heater element in the freezer becomes defective. This element is behind the main rear panel in the freezer compartment and must be replaced. When you replace the heater element, remember to also replace the heat sensor nearby, because this sensor controls the on/off sequence of the heater element.

If the freezer coils are freezing up in your fridge you may have the temperature set too low on the fridge, another common reason is that you may not be closing the fridge door all of the way, otherwise you should call a repairman.
