Ice in freezer compartment

I have an 8 month old LRFD22 and the inside of the freezer gets coated with ice--like an ice storm inside. You would have to chip off the ice to use the switch on the ice maker. Can anyone help?

    Twice now with my bottom freezer, the seal is not making good contact, It is a winter wonderland in the freezer, with snow and ice. I am in trouble? Is this going to go on for the whole time that I keep the LG?



    Why didn't I stick with GE?

    We have a similar problem on our 2 year old LG french door fridge with bottom freezer. We typically use the ice maker however we get an excessive amount of ice or frost building up on the back wall of the freezer which must be knocked off. As the ice developes and covers a larger area on the back wall inside the freezer a fan ( I assume it is a fan ) starts making noise like it is hitting something...ice? Our only solution thus far is to unplug the fridge for 24 hours and then plug it back in again. We are planning to stop using the ice maker but would welcome a solution that would still allow us the use of this handy accessory.

I have found the factory settings do not work. I had the same problem. I changed the freezer setting to 5 F degrees and the refrigerator setting to 35 F degress. Have had no problems since.

I have seen this problem with the LG freezer unders. There is a air leak that is getting into the freezr allowing the moisture to frost up at the back of the freezer. It will form frost all over too. Since your unit is 8 month old call Lg and let them deal with the problem. At my last Lg training the problem is with the air damper in the fresh food section may not be closing fully. So Call for service.

1 month old Samsung RF28HFEDTSR. No ice in upper ice compartment. All Ice drops to bucket in freezer section. I press reset button it dings and soon one group of ice falls in upper bucket.
I believe something's wrong with your new ice maker. Are you sure that the ice maker is not turned off on the display? And take a little bit of time and go through your user manual if you don't have the user manual let me know I will send you one

Freezer is not defrosting
1. Remove all of the food from inside the freezer and place it into the ice chest. Use more than one ice chest, if necessary. Cover the food with ice from a 10 lb. bag of ice. Alternatively, place all of the food from your freezer into the refrigerator compartment, packed tightly together.
2. Place one or two 10 lb. bags of ice into one or two large bowls inside the refrigerator compartment to keep the food chilled. Keep the door to the refrigerator tightly closed and avoid opening it during the freezer defrosting process.
3. Unplug the unit and leave the freezer door open.
4. Let the freezer defrost overnight or for at least eight hours.
5. Use the towels to wipe up the melted ice.
6. Plug in a hair dryer and direct it to the interior of the freezer to melt any remaining ice from the walls and door. Be sure to direct it into the vents of the freezer, too.
7. Wipe up any water from ice melted with the hair dryer from inside and around the freezer.
8. Plug the freezer back into the outlet, and return food still solidly frozen to the freezer compartment from the ice chest or refrigerator. Use any thawed foods within a day or two or discard.

Refrigerator is dripping water inside, from the vents between the top freezer and into the bottom fridge. Model # ER2HCMXPL00. What is the fix?
Every 8 hours or so it defrosts and melts the ice on the freezer coil. There is a drain hole in the back of the freezer compartment that tends to get clogged.  Take all of the stuff out of your freezer.  Take the back panel off, get a hair dryer and melt all of the ice.  It will take a while.  Find where the water drains and plunge the hole with a coat hanger.  Once in a while the drain line gets clogged at the bottom where it comes out to so check down by the compressor for cloggs too.

Refrig not cooling
Either the fan that blows cold air from the freezer compartment to the fresh food compartment is burned out or the door/flap that seperates the compartments is stuck or the linkage connecting it to the fresh food temperature dial is stuck or broken.

The evaporator coils are in the freezer compartment and air is blown from the freezer compartment to cool the fresh food compartment. For some reason, air is not moving to fresh food compartment.

If the fan is running, it could be something as simple as Ice blocking to door between the freezer and fresh food compartment. I know modern refrigerators are self-defrosting, but that's only the evaporator coils, which are defrosted by a timer and a heater.

Ice can form on passageways inside the refrigerator, like the exit of the ice maker and in this case, on the door and 'tunnel' between the freezer and fresh food compartment. It's free, and doesn't take a lot of time, so try completely defrosting the unit before doing anything else.

BE SURE to keep the doors open, as odors can form as particles of food are allowed to defrost that may have been frozen in an ice pack for months or even years. Clean the interior of the refrigerator while you have everything out and reset the controls to normal settings.

If this doesn't help, there may be a mechanical problem with the air transfer control flap/door that will need to be fixed.

Hope this helps.

Ice maker flooded top freezer compartment
It may be just the water control valve on back of refrigerator. Put tap water in ice maker and lower lever for on. After ice is made, does it drop to tray? At this time when empty is the time the control valve is asked for water. The problem could be in valve on back or the inside ice maker itself. If you can try a few test with me I will help you locate the problem. Let me know what you find as I go through this with you. Sea Breeze

I have water pooling on my fridge trays and than turning into ice . The water seems to be coming from the vents. How do i get rid of that.
The freezer compartment has a drain hole behind the back wall inside the freezer compartment. The drain hole has probably rusted and has gotten larger. Carefully remove the icemaker and the screws from the back wall inside the freezer compartment. Lift the bottom of the back wall and look to see if the drain hole has gotten larger. You can make a small funnel from an aluminum can to fit over this area directing the water into the drain tube. It worked for me. good luck. Dave.

Neverending ice cystals buildup in freezer
Hi Rachel,

Opened 3-10 times per day, per week, per month?

There is only one possible source of these ice crystals -- moisture precipitating from the air (condensate) -- this air is coming from outside the freezer. It's either getting in when the freezer is opened or coming in around the gasket.

You might try a very thin coat of vaseline on the gasket to get a better seal.
