• Water leakage - Often caused by a blocked defrost drain or damaged water inlet valve

• Frost buildup in the freezer - Resulting from a faulty defrost heater, defective door seal, or thermostat issues

• Noisy operation - Usually due to a failing evaporator fan motor or compressor problems

• Display panel not responding - A sign of control board failure or power supply issues
