Gasket was worn and needed replaced. It was causing frost to form around inside of door.
Pulled the freezer out and unscrewed the screws around door. Gasket slide right out. After placing the new gasket, I used a hair dryer and sealed the gasket tighter. Works like a charm!! Very pleased with this do-it-yourself fix.

Unit Would Not Freeze And The Coils Would Ice Over And There Would Be Little Airflow From The Top Fan
Took interior panel off and uncliped yhe termination switch and cliped the new one on the coil and connected the two wires very simple. The defrost timer was located in the rear of the unit on the right side at the bottom. Removed the 2 screws holding the bracket unpluged the timer and removed the timer. The new timer allready had a bracket so just plug in and install the 2 screws. Pluged the unit in and worked great make sure that the freezer is unpluged before changing any part

Side rail for sliding shelf would not stay tight
The sliding shelf side rail is held by three philips head screws that tighten into nut inserts. No amount of tightening would keep two of the three screws tight. I found that the nut inserts which are plastic and insert into the side of the freezer would pull loose, probably from years of overloading the sliding shelf basket. Ordered two nut inserts from PartSelect. 1. Remove three screws to remove shelf slide side rail. 2. Remove nut inserts to be replaced with needle nose pliers or reinsert screw a couple of turns and pull nut insert out with pliers. 3. Insert new nut inserts, position side rail, and tighten screws. Replace sliding shelf/basket.
