Hi @dawnpv ,
The pipe into the evaporator getting frozen is not a good sign. It may indicate that there is a blockage in the evaporator unit.
What is the model number of the refrigerator and how old is it?
With a lot of refrigerators there is a 5 year parts only manufacturer’s warranty on the sealed system. The sealed system comprises the compressor, evaporator, condenser and associated pipes Check the user manual for the warranty on your model.
Depending on your location and the type of refrigerant used in the refrigerator you may need a licenced refrigerator repairer to check the sealed system high and low pressures to determine what and where the problem is e.g. lack of refrigerant, blockage, faulty compressor etc. This is to comply with the environmental regulations regarding the handling of refrigerant gases. Where I am if the refrigerant type is other than R134a you cannot even buy it without a licence if for example you wanted to recharge a sealed system

Jayeff - Model FRT21NGJ and sadly it is 20 years old. I was hoping it was something I could repair to get a bit more time out of it before replacing it. From your answer it doesn't appear so. With its age I don't think it make sense to call a repair person. I really appreciate your answering my question.
