Hi my condenser keeps icing up... any ideas??

Hi,

Please check for any blockage in tubes bringing water into your ice machine. Checking within the machine for an overflow of ice would also be a good idea. If all else fails, please check the the troubleshooting section of your device's manual for the error codes that you've mentioned to get a slightly different perspective on the matter.

Thank you.

Hi,

Many times a freezer and/or refrigeratordo not work right because of a dirty condenser coil...there are also many otherthings that can go wrong. If you are hearing a clicking or buzzing thencheck out the last two tips.

If your refrigerator is running but warm, then...

Check out these tips that I wrote about that... it is a great place to starttrouble shooting your unit...and something that you can do rather then callinga repair person to do a simple thing for you...

on some models there is a condensation pan...is it still in place?

look up the manual & see if it shows a collection tray?"

usually a hose just above the tray to direct condensate into the pan?

syringe out drain with neat clorine bleach.(smell will go in 30 mins)and cover all food with clingfilm........to cut down on condensation..
nice sunny day in england.....

Hi,

This is due to the condenser overheating. Follow this link for instructions on repairing.

hopefully you looked out back ...rear lower panel and checked little white condenser fan running...it really needs too to keep temp stable across the condenser coils and no overheat condition to the compressor.hopefully you wont need the $300 circuit board like I just bought

hi,
tubing at the back refrigerator is the condenser, function of this is heat rejection that absorb from your evaporator inside your refrigerator,the white part of holding tube condenser is tube holder mounted by screw to hold condnser tubing has no relate inr efrigetration cycle.the screw use on tube holder was directly pin at the back side of eveporator where cooling effect emerge some ice melted or defrosted form water pass through on screw tube holder,you can fix loosen screw have some sealant pathced to hole where srcew located after a minute of drying time screw it again so that water leak may not come out to that tube holder through your condenser,
well,if that leak does not harm or not make any trouble passing through your condenser its still good condenser need to be cooled so that refrigerant inside tube can flow on liguid state effeciently.on large refrigeration such as ice plant
condenser was designed to have a water shower on tube called evaporative system.it make coole the condenser tube.
this ideas can give you clear explanation why water leaking on tube condenser.have anice day rate me,thanks a lot

check if the fan near the condenser is still running.
check also the lever if it is in the down position. if it is in the up position, that means you turn off the ice maker.
check if there is frost on the freezer, if it is cooling very well.

keep me posted,
