Chace - For model number FGVU17F8QTA

September 21, 2025

Unit was running ok and freezing but frost build up real bad ! Shut off for several months ! Door now open quite a bit on left side about middle to bottom gap from gasket about 1/2 inch ! Plugged unit back in and did not want to freeze , got cold but control panel door doing strange things ! Night another panel installed but did not fix it still doing strange things ! Unit is 10 years old maybe should replace it ?

Hi Chace, thank you for your inquiry. The issue seems to be with the door gasket, part number PS12071075. If the door gasket has a gap, frost will build up and the freezer will not cool down properly. Manually defrost the unit, unplug it, open the door, let the ice melt, then clean the interior. Once the ice is gone, replace the gasket and reset the temperature. Glad to be of help!
