I have a GE Profile side-by-side Refrig (model PSW26PSSB SS). The freezer does not stay cold. Often my food thaws. I?ve placed a cup of water in the freezer over night and it does not freeze. My ice maker leaks but I assume that is due to the freezer not being cold enough. I would love to get your help.

Hi,

As the weather is getting warmer for many people their freezer and/or refrigerator do not work right because of a dirty condenser coil...

Check out this tip that I wrote about that... it is a great place to start trouble shooting your unit...and something that you can do rather then calling a repair person to do a simple thing for you...

Check the squirrel-cage fan mounted on the top of the freezer condenser unit. The motor connects to the squirrel-cage with a friction-fit rubber coupler, and the coupler can wear out, causing the squirrel cage to barely turn even though the motor runs fine. Result was lots of ice build-up on the condenser coils, and no circulating air. Direction of airflow is into the bottom of the condenser housing and out the top.
