GE top freezer, model # GTH18JBRVRWW, about a year old. Just tonight freezer started buzzing, isn't stopping. I moved stuff around, tried lowering the adjustment (it's on 5), still buzzing. It's been really hot and humid, and we've been opening it a lot today, I've also noticed lately that it's getting kind of frosty in there. What gives and how can we fix it? It's practically new, I don't want to have to get a repair person in. Aug!!
Find the temp. control and hit it forcefully {its the little turning thing that has numbers on it } but dont hit the nob hit around it try to only hit it once and hard with a side of fist or something like it
You might have a defrost problem. Frost free models have a heating element that is controlled by a timer to automatically defrost ice, ie defrost timer turns on defrost heating element every 12 hours to melt ice in freezer and allow good air flow.
You can test defrost element with an ohm meter(located inside freezer coils-will have two wires going to a plug connection), if OK replace defrost timer (located in various places depending on make and model
