[QUOTE="BryanDP, post: 3813100, member: 1111"] Well, this is interesting. Figuring that the defrost timer circuit is just a little computer of some sort I decided to unplug and plug back in the fridge. (You know, the CTR+AL+DEL of all electronic things that don't have CTRL+ALT+DEL. Haha.) Anyway, about an hour after doing so the hot tub thermometer (the only working thermometer I seem to have here at the house) was showing under the 40 degrees mark where previously it been showing over 45. This particular thermometer only goes down to 30 degrees so I can't check the freezer but tomorrow I'll grab some at the warehouse. It's very likely that when it goes into defrost the next time it will get "stuck" again but at least this shows me that it's not a coolant leak or the compressor or a dirty coil. Thanks for the help! (Still open to hearing it if anyone has additional comments on the above thoughts on the original post. I know from my support days that the first hypothesis to an issue isn't necessarily the correct one.) Bryan [/QUOTE]
