Someone fix my freezer.

Hm I haven't had to do that before (I still use ice trays haha) but this looks promising:

Basically how to easily replace the motor that powers it.

After you guys get this figured out, my ice maker quit working this week.

It could be the bulb itself just blew from extra moisture or whatever.. or the switch mechanism that gets triggered when you open the door is seized up.

1. Unplug it and let most of that ice melt.
2. Blow hot air in and around the vent where the cold air blows in with a hair dryer. Do this for about half an hour.
3. Let it sit another 5-10 mins (might still be kinda warm/got)
4. Plug it back in.

Looks like that's the plan, but why would that affect the light bulb?

Reboot it. Fixes everything.

My refrigerator has a bottom-loading freezer. A couple days ago, two things went wrong in the freezer at the same time:

1. Light stopped working.

2. Freezer stopped defrosting.

The freezer is still cold, but it's dark and there's snow all over everything.

Someone, please...

FIX MY FREEZER!
