I have tried powering the appliance off and when I turn it back on, its still flashing. The temperature is set at 2 - the coldest in this weather. The freezer is ok, but there is a fine layer of ice on the back for the fridge shelfing.
Can you please advice?
thanks
Roz

Madezmom, you have a defrost issue. If your model starts with 106 you more than likley have a bad defrost bi-metal, I will attach a picture of bad one. This sits on the evaporator in the freezer section behind the panel. You will have to remove the shelves and remove the back panel. Defrost the evaporator completely. The part number for the bi-metal is 2196155. See if yours is bulged like the one in the attached photo. If so, that's your problem..Catriver..post back.

Liners are not able to be replaced. Will need to buy a new unit if the liner is a problem.

Hi, What brand/model# is this unit? I can help
Thank you for your post, friend!
From what you are describing it sounds like a possible issue with your keypad or control panel. I would recommend performing a power reset on your appliance which you can do by unplugging the power cord or flipping the household circuit breaker off for roughly ten minutes.
If that does not help correct the issue I would suggest seeking assistance from a professional to come out and properly diagnosis your appliance to avoid any unnecessary part purchases. -Matt

your probably not going to like this answer but... it is best to fully defrost it as it may be ice on one of the sensors the defrost system cannot clear. clue= Layer of ice on back fridge shelving.
Turn it off/unplug it! let stand for at least 8 hrs with doors ajar.
or if you want to unplug remove contents and warm up interior for a hour or more with a hair dryer.
have a sponge or towel handy for wiping water from the bottom. don't put dryer on bottom it may get wet and short. Not good. check rear and sides if they are still cold/cool keep dryer running for 30 min more or so.
By turning it off you just reset the PCB and if it is ice on the evaporator or sensor it will not be working correctly and show as an intermittent fault...flashing light.
Hope this helps you a little.
