Ge gss25jemc ice in door keeps freezzing up

The small flapper door on the in door ice dispenser does not close all the way. It causes frost to build up on the dispenser. I only get crushed ice, even when selecting cubes. Is there a spring on the door that keeps it closed? Is it hard to replace? Thanks for the help. Dennis

    I have the same problem and now the water dispensor won't stop running when I remove the glass and water goes everywhere!!

    flapper door stays open which causes tons of frost buildup inside.

    The flap in the door is in the open position. there is supposed to be a spring or gear that keeps it closed when ice is not being dispensed.

Flapper door diagram is here, you can see how the spring, etc. work to hold the door closed. http://www.partselect.com/Schematics/GE/00113173i04.gif As for the crushed ice, (item 384) on the next diagram shows the little lever that lifts the side rod on the bin (item 329) to decide if cubes or crushed comes out. The solenoid (item 383) can get frozen up and not move. Take a look where screw (item 371) is, that little square window is where the device that lifts the rod is. Take a hair dryer and heat that area REAL good to melt the frozen solenoid mechanism. Test it every now and then by holding the door light switch off and pressing the cubed selection & lever. You should hear a very loud "clank" as the solenoid pull in to lift the rod on the bin.

Remove and clean the rod that goes into the center of the solenoid, Note that to get access, depress the two holes on the undeerside of the top of the dispenser with a small punch or screwdriver tip.

I am trying to install a new heat motor on a frigidaire refrigerator model frs26zrg. I am having frost build up on front side of ice maker, assuming its from flapper not closing all the way.
I assume your frost is at the front of the ice bin? If so, your correct. Room temperature air is leaking in to a 0 degree environment and causing frost build up. First, I would see if the ice door closes 100% without spring by pressing your finger on the door. I've had bad ice doors that were warped. Next, inspect supporting rod and spring and make sure they look ok. An eye test should suffice. Next, without heat motor, the spring should keep door shut 100%. See if that helps, good luck!

Ice Dispenser keeps getting frosted over and not dispensing ice
The problem your having is that the door in the dispenser chute isn't closing completly and warm air is coming in, clashing with the freezer and the moisture in the warm air freezes and collects right there in the chute causing the ice build up. The more common parts that may cause this is the door flapper being bad or damaged, flapper soleniod, which helps the flapper doofr get a good seal, and electronic board on the dispenser itself.

Gs5shaxtl01 ice dispensing door does not close causing melting/refreezing resuling in ice buildup and failure to dispense through outside door. Was there a recall? Was there originally an electric heater...
The part that keeps the flapper door closed can break which will let frost to build up. The door itself can break in two. My repair man used crazy glue to fix mine and was done in 5 minutes.

Ge profile artica ice dispenser and chute frosing.
This may be because the chute door is not all the way shut when off. If yes the warm moist air is being pulled through the opening and causing this. Sea Breeze

Frost buildup inside freezer door at ice dispenser
you are still not getting a seal on that flap. It sounds as if it may be warped. THe reason the frost and ice is building up is due to the flap not sealing there isn't any other reson for your problem. Good luck on your repairs

GE profile Artica side by side. I am getting a frost build up
Sounds like the dispensor flap is not closing completely , pulling outside air in . Using a flashlight on the outside of the flap , look inside to see if any light is visible . If so , then the ice flap plunger and solenoid will have to be replaced . Also , excessive crushed ice can also cause frosting .

Frost buildup on area where ice comes out of the ice bin with frost also on the inside of door chute
The flap door where ice is dispensed is warped letting warm air into the freezer causing the frost build up. You must replace the flapper - a $5 - $7 part but not too difficult to replace. I find the flapper last only about 2 years and frost problem reappears. Forget about a "weak heater".

Ice Jam in Chute - Whirlpool IDI SxS
first check would be to see if the flapper door is closing all the way in the dispenser area. best way is to remove the ice bucket and shine a flashlight from the front up into the disp door area and look for light around the door from inside the chute.

another check would be to make sure the door delay mechanism is connected an not allowing the dispenser door to close to fast trapping a cubes in the door and causing an air leak in the chute..

Keep in mind if you use alot of crushed ice frost build up is faster than with just cubed.

Chest freezer clicks on and off in a few seconds. I have a Westinghouse chest freezer. It sat idle for a few years. I plugged it in the other day and it clicks on and off in about 4 seconds. I left it for a few hours and freezer was cold. Unplugged it again. Next day plugged it in to check reliability. Same relay sound but after a few hours, freezer was warm, compressor way hot. Replaced starter capacitor. Same issue, no cold. Did the compressor internals just give me one last cold then die? Not sure what it can be on these simple units. Manufactured in 1997

Westinghouse WSE6100WF Evap coils frosting up. I recently purchased this fridge second hand, and immediately started having trouble. The fridge temp increased to about 8C (I keep a sensor in there). I realized that it was because the evap coils were freezing over and freezing the vent, so no air could get to the fridge compartment. I haven't been able to find a wiring diagram, but I inspected the circuit board and nothing looks damaged. I checked the defrost sensor. When defrosted it reads there is no connection. Then I turned the freezer back on and waited for it to freeze over again (took about 12 hours). Then the sensor reads 0 Ohm. So that appears to be working. I checked the seal on the freezer and fridge doors to make sure no moist air was getting in. They both seemed fine. I checked using the technique of putting paper in the seals, but I don't really know what I'm doing. The seals seem solid though. I also checked the defrost heating element. It read about 210 ohm, which seems fine. The only thing I can think of is the defrost timer, but I have no knowledge on how to check that.

I have a Whirlpool wrs321sdhv08 it doesn't have leveling feet just the little roller wheels. When I lower the front wheels so they aren't free rolling my fridge leans forward. Is there another adjustment?! If I raise it up to level the wheels are able to roll so when you open the doors it rolls forward.
