Thanks for the assist, although I have an additional tip to add. We went
through and cleaned out of the coils underneath the fridge. About 4
hours later is was still very hot to the touch and we thought we were
going to have to move it out and do the back. Since by then it was
around 10:00 pm and we were tired, we decided to wait until morning.
So I could feel like I was doing SOMETHING in the meantime, I got a
fan and put it to blow under the fridge on the side of the freezer. Came
back down around an hour later and the previously hot areas were now
basically room temperature.
So, it appears as though the hotness had become self sustaining
(more or less) and the cooling from the fan broke that and allowed
coolness to reappear. Disconnected the fan this morning and about 5
hours on, everything remains as it should.
