Appliance Repair

Maybe I can help you through whatever issue you're having. I've got a pretty good track record of helping folks resolve home improvement/repair issues on here...

The fridge gets cool but never cold. And the freezer gets really bad iceburn which I think is because the rubber seal along the side doesn't seal completely and things melt-freeze-melt consistently.

From what I've read about the fridge is that it's probably a sensor.

The rubber seal is an easy DIY fix once you order the correct replacements. Have you checked the temperature setting for the fridge to see if any changes you make are having any effect? If you change the internal fridge temp control and the temp doesn't seem to be changing, then you're right, there's a sensor going bad.

Ive dealt with a ton of fridge repairs Since I'm pretty handy and it cost so much to repair, it's usually not worthwhile after 75-90 to figure out issue, 25-200 for part with compressor not working or low on freon being worst plus the cost of actual repair.

I can offer some advice if you post model number, but some quick basics. Usually all your air goes to freezer and a little passage toward back middle brings enough air to fridge part to make it cool. If you have ice in freezer, that most probably eliminates most of big stuff, ie compressor, freon, etc. If your fridge is not getting cold and you're getting some melt, what can happen is ice will block the passage from freezer to fridge. I also had this happen when one of my tenant spilled something liquid in freezer and it froze in passage.

If you're getting melt in freezer and your seal is bad, those are fairly cheap and easily replaced, most just snap in perimeter of door after pulling out old one.

Finally, what do you mean by "ice burn"? If you're getting buildup of ice in freezer, it could be a bad defroster assuming its a frost free which almost all are.

One of the easiest things to do without any work is put all your food in cooler with some ice to empty entire fridge, unplug it and leave door open with a fan blowing in it. Give it half a day to defrost completely and clean.

    • I read the entire article.   Seam routes are great against a single high safety because they have to make a decision.  They can be high risk, high reward play but they are a staple in nearly every NFL game.  Just because they are tight windows doesn't make them hospital balls. The biggest takeaway from that whole article was this is football.  You're going to get hit.  You can get lit up on any play.  QB tries the best he can to judge the distance but the structure of the play is going to get you hit and that safety can run down hill.   Here is one to Sanders, from the same game, who slows down slightly and puts himself in a better position to make the catch without getting lit up.  Hunter ran full tilt and jumped.  No fear running that route which is what Grok recommends.      
    • Wanted to give a quick shout out to those of y'all participating in the discussion in good faith. It's been a nice change of pace for some of us fans to combine our knowledge and try to figure things out rather than just looking for a scapegoat to blow off some steam. ♡
    • You don't throw high over the middle, unless your Bryce then it's okay and it's the recievers fault. Plus Sanders is 6'4" 250 and Renfrow is 5'10" 180
