    See if the thermostat is in cold position, if u still experiance problems, it means ur resistor which checks for temperature is cut off. And u will need a fridge technician to repair it.



    Thankyou

    Else before calling the technician, what u can do is, leave the fridge unused for 2 days and then turn it on. U may suceed in seeing it work again.



    Thankyou

    It is then to be assumed as ur compressor is spoiled/damaged. Are u able to hear the switching of the compressor.?

    There is one last thing which cud have been the cause, probably a leak in the gas contained in the compressor. So in that case u will have to fix the puncture and fill the gas from a Refrigerator's repair place.



    Thankyou

Refrigerator is not cold enough although set at highest temperature. Freezer side as slight frost starting on back panel. Water comes out of dispenser warm.

Sounds like a short in the defrost cycle. Could be leaky door gasket also. If evap coil is frozen over only half way then you have a sealed system problem.

Refrigerator side by side neither will won't stay cold

You have an automatic defost malfunction. There is a timer (or circuit board) which controls the run and defost modes of your refrigerator. Once in defost, there is a heater that comes on to melt frost behind back panel. Once a certain temperature is reached behind the panel, a defost thermostat (or bi-metal) cuts off the heater. This maintains your frost-free operation.
