My freezer is not cold enough to keep food frozen...

It might be a good idea to clean the condeser coil. If the coil is blocked, your freezer will not get cold enough.

it could be that your fridge,freezer setting is not turned up high enough to keep the freezer cold enough.turn it up to setting number 5 at least and if that dont do it u could have a faulty thermostat.have it checked by a engineer.

From room temperature if just plugged in rule of thumb is 24hrs to properly reach temp. Place a glass half full of water in shelf when is frozen solid the unit should be plenty cold enough to keep food. It is always a good idea to get a small fridge thermometer to make sure of temp.

Hello,


Check the temperature setting
Assure that there is enough room for air flow in the freezer or freezer
Check for air flow restrictions in vents
Test the temperature control
Clean the condensor coils
Check the door seals
Test the door switch
Test defrost heater
Test defrost timer
Test evaporator fan
Check for a clogged drain tube
Check for refrigerant leak
Freezer is too cold

Check the temperature setting
Test the temperature control
Clean the condensor coils
Check the outlet voltage
Test the condensor fan
Test the compressor relay
Test the overload protector
Test the compressor motor.
Hope this help in solving the problem. take care....

I think you should see if the circulation fan is working inside. Sometimes they need a little push and some WD 40 let me know. I might have another idea. The Raz Shack

Check the temperature setting to ensure at least the one-half way mark. If o.k., then you could have a refrigerant or compressor-related problem. Contact an appliance service company.

This is well with in factory specifications. Hot air rises and cold air drops. Because a chest freezer does not have a fan to circulate the air it is normal for the basket to be warmer than the bottom of the freezer. The bottom of the freezer is used for food you want to keep for a longer period of time.What you store in the basket is food you will freeze for a short period of time. Ice cream should not be kept in the basket. As you fill your freezer with food you will find that the temperature will equal out because the frozen food will take up the place of the frozen air which will give you a more stable freezer temperature.
Try your test when you have it full of food.

The highest number is the coldest setting.When you fill it up with food to freeze , set the freezer to the coldest and after everything is frozen .set the control to the middle.

1.check the coils on the back or under side.
2.check if compressor is running
3.check if copressor is hot
4.let me know the answers

If the unit is running continuously and not maintaining the temperature cold enough the system may have a leak. If it is NOT running continuously the problem could be in the temperature control.
