Answer 2

Our fridge had the same issue and it was a censor that needed to be replaced. Soon as I get home I can take a photo of the fridge repair person we called

@facetiae thank you.  

Answer 3

It depends on food placement in the fridge also

@buskus every shelf is freezing.

@labdanum you can't adjust the temp?

I lowered it to the lowest and nothing

Wiggle it fast back and forth

Answer 4

And how quickly you eat it. Food doesn't last that long in my fridge :(

Answer 5

Vacuum the coils there probably dirty. There either underneath or in the back on older boxes. O

Answer 6

I put a carton of eggs in last night and it’s frozen today

@labdanum Im positive it’s the censor bc that’s what happened to us . Be home soon

@facetiae thank you so much.  

Answer 7

Make sure you don’t have food in front of the inside fan. That’s what happened tome

Answer 8

Are you blocking any vents in there? Have you cleaned the coils? If you adjusted the temperature your gonna have to wait 24 hours for it to stabilize

My was a Samsung so I’m not sure if the same situation. For me it was a temperature sensor that went bad and replaced it my self. It was around 30$ shipped. You tube helped diagnose and replace the problem.

Thank you. I will try to research.

@footboy yes! Bobby is great.  

Answer 12

Maybe a stupid question, but is the refrigerator thermostat turned up too high (meaning set too cold)?

No. The thermostat is at its regular level.
