Fridge Help!

Options
Afternoon all

Hope I'm in the right place for Help! My Fridge has started freezing :eek: haven't altered the temperature but I now have frost on the back inside the fridge and ice crystals on some things and frozen edges on others.

Any ideas? how can I stop everything being frozen? can I leave the door open?

I'm just thinking it will be after the weekend before I can look at getting it fixed/replaced so I need a temporary measure in the meantime

Thanks

    Check the drain at the back/bottom of the fridge isn't blocked with rubbish or old food.

    Don't leave the door open. The warm air will come in from outside the fridge and it'll freeze faster.

    Make sure the seal on the door isn't damaged. A broken seal can cause freezing.
