Common Symptoms
- Freezer temperature problems
- Frost buildup associated with an evaporator or defrost-system failure
- Refrigerator operating but freezer not cooling correctly
Check Before Replacing
- Disconnect appliance power before inspection or testing.
- Check the evaporator for heavy frost, physical damage, or signs of refrigerant leakage.
- Verify the evaporator fan and defrost components separately before condemning the evaporator.
- Sealed-system work requires refrigerant recovery, recharge, and qualified service.
Pro Tip
This is a sealed-system component; evaporator replacement is generally a qualified-technician repair and the part is not pre-filled with refrigerant.
