These are the freezer issues we fix most often in Dallas–Fort Worth homes and businesses. Tell us which one sounds like yours when you request service — it helps the technician arrive prepared.
A failed evaporator or condenser fan, dirty coils, a bad start relay or a sealed-system problem can stop it from cooling.
A worn door gasket lets warm, moist air in. On frost-free models, a failed defrost heater, timer or thermostat lets ice take over.
Dirty condenser coils, a bad door seal or a failing fan make the compressor run nonstop and raise your power bill.
Buzzing, clicking or rattling usually comes from a fan motor, an ice-blocked fan blade or a struggling compressor.
A clogged defrost drain or a cracked drain pan leaks water under or inside the freezer.
A tripped breaker, a bad outlet, a failed start relay or a control problem can leave the freezer completely dead.
Some problems have a simple fix. Try these first — if the problem is still there, it's time for a repair visit.
Food thawing? Keep the door closed. A full freezer stays frozen about 48 hours with the door shut.

Common causes are dirty condenser coils, a failed evaporator or condenser fan, a bad start relay or a defrost problem. Less often, it's a sealed-system issue such as a refrigerant leak.
Heavy frost usually means warm air is getting in through a worn door gasket, or the defrost system has failed on a frost-free model.
A full freezer keeps food frozen for about 48 hours with the door closed; a half-full one for about 24 hours. Food that still has ice crystals can be refrozen.
