Failed auto defrost

My Beko Larder fridge has stopped automatically defrosting, resulting in thick ice building up at the top and rear. I have followed all the instructions in the manual, cleared the drainage channels etc, but to no avail. Is this a known problem? Is there a reasonable cost repair? Thanks Ray Green

Ray, you've added this question to a dishwasher thread. You would get better response on a fridge thread.

SOURCE: beko ap930 no water geting to to ice tray

For me, this problem was because the tube was blocked with ice (the part of the tube inside the machine), which is why the tube popped off the back.
Try defrosting the freezer, or pushing hot water through the pipe with a syringe

Hi,
The drain may very well be blocked with ice....that is not at all uncommon...

Let the fridge off for a day to clear any ice and then blow through the drain to make sure it is open...

Then follow this tip to install a heater that will keep the drain open...

Large Ice Build up on top inside back of fridge unit.
Could be the auto-defrost has stopped working. Most modern frost-free fridges have a heating element behind the liner where the cooling element is and the ice forms. Between the thermostat controlled periods of cooling the heating element should switch on for a short time to melt any ice that has formed and the resulting water forms into droplets that roll down the fridge liner until it is channelled into a drain leading to a tray mounted on the electric motor. The warmth from the motor evaporates the water and completes the maintenance-free frost-free system.

Possibilities are faulty wiring/connections, defrost timer, defrost element.

The defrost timer could be integral with the thermostat.

Some older fridges had a manual switch to start the defrost process.

If the fan has failed or intermittent, the freezer wont freeze the food properly but usually you get a mountain of ice build up at the back of the freezer. This ice jams and stops the fan from turning. Alternatively, there could be a defrost problem. Unless it is a fully electronic defrost machine, there is usually a little timer on the back of the fridge to force a defrost after a certain time. The fridge will turn off, the defrost heater operates to melt the ice and then usually with 20 to 45 minutes, the defrost timer will "click" back on and start the fridge running again. If the timer is sticking, the fridge may stay on its defrost cycle and never start again, thus, it doesn't get cold. If you find the defrost timer, have a close look for a little shaft or slotted screw type stud sticking out of the middle of it. A slight turn of this and you should hear it clicking around. When you hear a loud click, that is either the start or end of the defrost cycle. If you have a full electronic defrost system, it may be a failed board, heater, thermostat or defrost safety fuse.

How do you stop ice building inside, at the back of fridge model Beko LA87 Larder fridge
It can be 2 things. One is that the thermostat is broken but then it will also freeze your food. The other reason is that it has lost part of its gas charge due to a leak on the system causing the unit not to reach temperature thus not switching of on the thermostat and building ice inside. Normally it is not economically viable to fix the unit.

Hello,

Its normal for the evaperator coil in the freezer to have frost on it that is a sign of a heallthy good working compressor...WHEN IT BUILDS UP SO THICK their is no gaps in the coil and its just one huge iceblock that is where the problem lays. Thier is a automatic defrost system that is supposed to periodically come on and melt the frost and a component from it has failed allowing the frost to build up so thick it has restricted airflow through it.

The most probable problem is going to be a bad defrost heater it by far is the leading problem when a GE brand ref.doesnt automatically defrost.

This tip i wrote explains how to check and see why its not automatically defrosting

Oklahoma Freezer cold fridge warm fan gets Ice build up !
You should not have to manually defrost. Your auto defrost system is not working. Check the timer usuall in the frig compartment near the thermostat ( a small hole, use a screwdrive flat tip 1/4" to rotate the timer till it clicks starting the defrost cycle) check freezer in 10-15 min should be defrosted if not you will need to check the heater and thermostat located behind the rear or bottom panel of the freezer.

The defrost timer could be under the box in the front behind kick panel or in the rear by the compressor.

Fan in freezer very loud noise
There is probably an ice build up behind the plastic rear panel. The ice build up gets so thick that eventually, it obstructs the fan and then you get that loud noise as the tips of the fan are chipping away at the ice.
What you need to do is to remove the rear panel and thaw the ice build up. To remove the rear panel is usually only 2 screws at the bottom.....you will find that the panel is difficult to remove due to ice build up behind it, so gentle heat from a hairdryer is a good way to accelerate the thawing process....once the panel is removed, you will see the ice build up......mine was about 2 inches thick!!!
I used the hairdryer to thaw it all out and then once cleared, switched it back on and have never had a problem since.
By the way, my F?F is a Beko CDA563FS......the one with the water dispenser on the front and frost free.
Hope this helps
