First Thing first:
Inspect the Power Supply:
Before diving into more complex issues, verify that your refrigerator is properly connected to a power source. Check for blown fuses, tripped circuit breakers, or damaged power cords. Reset any tripped breakers and replace any blown fuses, if necessary.
Examine the Thermostat Settings:
Ensure that the refrigerator's thermostat is ON and set to the appropriate cooling level. Incorrect thermostat settings can lead to a lack of cooling. Adjust the temperature settings according to the manufacturer's recommendations.
Check for Proper Air Circulation:
Ensure that there is adequate space around the refrigerator for proper airflow. Additionally, clean the condenser coils to remove dust and debris.
Investigate the Evaporator Fan:
Check the walls for ice build up.
The evaporator fan helps circulate cold air throughout the refrigerator. A malfunctioning fan can lead to a lack of cooling. Listen for unusual noises or vibrations that may indicate a problem with the fan motor. If necessary, consult a professional technician to replace the motor. Additionally it can cause building up the ice on the refrigerator.
