Hi. We've got used ("as is") Electrolux Frigidaire

Hi Dale Dibb, thank you for your inquiry!

I understand that the food inside of your Frigidaire freezer is getting frost on the inside of the packages. I would recommend turning the temperature up inside of your freezer. Additionally moisture inside of the package would cause frost to develop on the inside of the food packages.

Please assure that all possible moisture has been removed out of the food packages prior to placing the items inside of the freezer. If there is anything else that I can help you with, please feel free to reconnect! -Matt

Hi, Could be that the freezer temperature is to low

Hello David - Typically most of the recent manufacture freezers have fan motors, however some are enclose to where you are unable to reach or see it. Are you having a specific problem with your freezer?

The defective door seal is the problem.

Start relay.

I have had the same problem with my frigidaire/electrolux upright freezer... I am researching to see if there is a pattern. Once or twice a year for the past few years, the freezer defrosted itself. I found the outside of the unit to be VERY hot to the touch around the time that this occurred.
We typically unplug it for a chunk of time when this happens and then replug it. It has always begun working again.
Sadly, we have lost many groceries and have had to clean many bloody meat messes as a result of this. ANYONE buying this freezer should save their receipt... That way, they can return it or have it repaired when it fails. I hate to think of sending all of these failing monstrosities to the landfill... =(

i would make sure that the coils are all clean, inside and out. make sure the fan runs on the back, the water pan isn't over flowing.

stopped up drain,tear in gasket,not going into defrost soon enough

if the unit still works and looks new i would say knock off about 100 dollars of the price you paid for it and this should be good enough for some who wants it or at least sell it for 200 to 300 dollars

HI, It is a big job to recharge a unit. If it need recharged, it means there is a leak. Do you have any cooling at all? If this a self defrosting freezer? If it is self defrosting, make sure there isn't any frost building up on the evaporator panel.
