In the refer I have a classical red liquid filled thermometer for refrigerators. It is hanging in the muddle of the middle shelf. In the freezer I have a digital thermometer that has a thermocouple. (I don't have to open the door to check it) I have verified both in ambient and in ice water. I am an Instrument Technician/SCADA analyst by trade, I know my instruments work. In the last 2 days the freezer has cooled to 28 F and the refer is holding at 45 F.
I see no sighs if the dreaded yellow deposits. I am trying to make an appointment for service now. I just spoke to the local technician. He said if the accumulator tank (my term cuz that is what it looks like) is quite hot, which it is, it is back boiling and likely needs a new cooling unit. Said I could try and jar whatever is plugged in the cooling system loose by going down a bumpy road but it is unlikely to fix it.
