FFB6187 I have a problem where the fridge temperature gets warmer. This is an ongoing problem where once defrosted it solves the problem, trouble is I now have to do this every 6-8 weeks. I remove the back panel in the freezer, use a hair dryer to remove the ice. The ice builds up on the silver radiator thingy (technical I know), around the fan and blocks the circulation vent into the fridge, hence the temperature increases in the fridge. I hear circulation from the compressor, the fan works, I am thinking the thermostat needs replacing....any thoughts
Try rearranging all items inside fridge and freezer so that air may circulate around all items easily and then check seals on doors and ensure doors are closed completely and not leaking cold air. Also do a complete thaw/ defrost. You can remove the plastic coverings and ensure all ice is defrosted. Using a hair dryer will speed up thawing/defrosting process.
