Freezer INTERMITTENTLY works

if the machine has been put into 'Demo Mode' the cooling stops working. It is a special setting for when the unit is on the sales floor.... What is the model number and brand?
For Kitchen Aid the way to end DEMO is to hold the 'max cool' and 'cooling on/off' for several seconds until the control beeps...

You either have a faulty thermostat, a loose connection or most likely a build up of ice inside the freezer. I had the same problem. Almost replaced fridge. Took all the food out one day, took out the racks and disassembled bottom and rear and found a two foot log block of ice inside air return. Removed ice everything works perfectly.

In many cases changing the board alone will not solve the problem if the start relay, overload and the run capacitor have not been replaced, WR09X10107 Relay and Overload Kit and WR62X79 Run Capacitor You can locate a service manual HERE and test points and wiring diagram HERE I am here to answer any questions you may have, Thanks Sea Breeze

My bottom freezer LG is intermittently shutting down and thawing everything in the freezer (cooling stops in fridge part, too). $3,500 for a refrigerator that works only 18 months.

Let it unplug for an hour and set temp to your preferred setting and then plug in again. This will resume to normal operation.
Be sure that electricity in your home is not fluctuating or surging as it will cause false alarm or your fridge. It can intermittently operate your fridge.
Thanks for asking

Hello,

Hi,
This is common. Unplug it or turn off the circuit breaker for a full 5 minutes. Then plug-in and follow instructions. Things will be good
