Initial Complaint: Food in Freezer frosted over and warm fresh food compartment
I air vents frosted shut between Freezer and Fresh food compartment causing freezer to
super cool trying to satisfy Fresh Food compartment which of course is never satisfied because
airways are blocked. Freezer -20, Freshfood 50 degrees
Repair: I defrosted air vents and problem reoccurs in two weeks and then again in another two weeks
Doors close nicely by themselves and fan and lights work properly. Educated home owner on making
sure the door are not held ajar and not putting steaming hot pots of soup in fridge or anything.
Data Logger reads very high humidity in freezer almost every day for a number of hours.
What could I be missing?

Your defrost heater is warped in the middle. Leave your temp scribe on it, try bending your defrost heater back to shape downward straight . Advance unit into defrost cycle and make sure you have an even red glow across the heater, if you do not you have a weak defrost heat and it needs to be replaced. Check your defrost water outlet in the back to be sure it’s not letting warm air migrate up from the compressor area. My thought is the way the heater is warped up in the middle the frost build up in the middle will block water dripping down the left side of the evaporator causing it to overflow the trough and leak into the vents . The ice in the left vent is more than the other 2. I’m really interested to hear what you find to be the problem when it’s all said and done.
Also check for air infiltration from drain tube in unit compartment.
