    Hey guys,

    Was hoping someone would know where I should start looking. I have a Thermador built-in refrigerator where the freezer side would sometimes be good (0 degrees) and then it would warm up to 15-30. It goes up and down so of course I can't trust it anymore. The fridge side seems okay. Fortunately I have a second fridge I've got all my stuff in right now.

    Any idea what part of the fridge I should focus on first? Condensor? Temperature control switch?

    Sounds like it's going into defrost mode. There's a switch that controls that which can go bad sometimes. I've had it happen before. The specifics are highly dependent on your model, though.

    Awesome. I'll check that out. Guess I'll take some panels apart tonight to see if I can see anything.
