Rebecca - For model number KRSC503ESS01

February 8, 2024

The evaporator coil freezes up in the fresh food(refrigerator, not freezer)section if I try to drop the unit temp below 40°F to get it to 38°F. At a unit sitting of 40°F, it will maintain 40°F for a couple of weeks before I notice it to start freezing up again. Any unit setting below 40°F, it will start freezing up in a couple of days. It doesn’t seem like there is a defrost heater in this section to prevent this from happening like there is in the freezer section. Very frustrating for this expensive refrigerator.

Hello Rebecca, thank you for getting in touch. Based on the description that you have provided, we would recommend checking the evaporator fan motor, part number PS12741656, to solve the problem. We hope this helps!
