We noticed that the exterior center panel separating the ref from the freezer gets and remains hot and interior cooling becomes inefficient. Water pitchers and food containers in the ref become frosty. Icicles form inthe freezer. Thermostat was reset to 5 for both. There is no overload of food in both.Condition is not normal. What can be done to remedy this?

5 Set the freezer to warmest setting, and the fridge to the middle setting. Overnight, it will not work as hard, and whatever is inhibiting the cold will thaw and cold air will circulate again. The center wall will also return to normal. High heat and humidity can cause the defrost to work too hard. Vacuum the coils under the fridge, too.

0 Our Whirlpool ED25RF is experiencing the same thing. Center wall edge is hot to the touch. I have the fridge set to 5 now, and still can't chill effeciently. Looking forward to any advice. I'll post again if I find a solution.

0 Everything is back to normal! I also noticed the 'hum' isn't going all day long (so it must not be overworked). What a relief!!!!
