Hello all,
My bottom freezer of Maytag 2556 HES(stainless steel doors) model has
now ice forming in the freezer. It is all over the sides, back, front
and on the rack plus in the icemaker. Is there something wrong? Should
i lower the temperature. It looks like maybe water is leaking from
somewhere, but not sure what is causing this? The bottom freezer door
looks tightly closed. Any ideas? Thanks.


Has it been humid lately? Is there a dry/humid switch inside? if its not a
settings or leaky door seal then you may have a problem with the defrost
system. Usually it is the timer but it could also be the heating element in
the freezer. usually this causes frost not hard clear ice but ya-neva-no?

Observe the icemakler while it is filling, the water may be blocked and
spraying a mist or something. Turn off the icemaker for a few days (lift
the metal bar) and see if the situation stabalizes.
