MY SUBZERO 532 REFRIGERATOR SIDE EVAPORATOR ICES UP. AFTER A MANUAL DEFROST IT WORKS FINE FOR FIVE OR SIX DAYS, THEN I BEGIN TO NOTICE A LITE FROST STARTING ON THE BACK WALL. A TECH THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE A FREON LEAK (I FREAKED OUT AT THE ESTIMATE) NOW IT IS ALMOST ONE YEAR LATER. THE REFRIGERATOR STILL COOLS EVENLY UNTIL THE EVAPORATOR GETS FROZEN UP. CAN A LEAK BE THAT SLOW BECAUSE AFTER A YEAR AS IT SEEMS THERE STILL IS COOLANT IN THE SYSTEM? ? ? I THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE A FAN (THE ONE AT THE TOP OF THE REFRIGERATOR BEHIND THE LIGHTS) OR THERMOSTAT PROBLEM AND GOT THOSE REPLACED. IS THERE ANY KIND OF DEFROST CYCLE IN THE 532???

Hi thanks for the question you do have a no defrost problem The defrost timer is not advancing to the defrost cycle The timer is located on the top where the compressor is located do ypu have an owners manual if you do you should have a bresk down of that fridge So replace the timer thanks The appliance doc
