The short answer
Everything in the 4w3n62 family — six closely related models — is built around the same cooling layout, so the faults repeat across it. Temperature complaints lead here, and the leak, ice and noise complaints behind them are often the same fault seen from another side.
What goes wrong, and where it is covered
- Runs but will not hold temperature — Food spoiling at normal settings while the compressor runs more or less continuously. Covered on the cooling page.
- The ice maker has stopped filling the bucket — Thin cubes mean a short fill; a full mould that never ejects means the harvest. Covered on the ice-maker page.
- Water under the drawers or on the floor — A puddle under the drawers points at the drain; a wet patch at the back points at a water fitting. Covered on the water-leak page.
- A noise the cabinet did not used to make — New noise with normal cooling, which points at fans and fasteners rather than at mechanism. Covered on the noise page.
In frequency order
- Cooling — Leads here. It pulls the other three along behind it.
- Ice — Next. Cheap causes dominate: supply, shutoff arm, freezer temperature.
- Water — Next. Usually a drain that has silted up rather than a joint that has failed.
- Noise — Least common. Fans, fasteners and feet, plus normal cycle noise read as a fault.

How the four classes rank — No snapshot carries a component share here, so the column is a position rather than a share and no denominator is printed.
General guidance| Problem class | Position on this family |

| Runs but will not hold temperature | Leading class |
| The ice maker has stopped filling the bucket | Second |
| Water under the drawers or on the floor | Third |
| A noise the cabinet did not used to make | Least common |
Before you open anything
Safety
Unplug the appliance or switch off its breaker before removing any panel; a capacitor can hold a charge after the power is off.
Where the line falls
Anything reachable without a panel — coil, feet, drain, shutoff arm, filter — is owner work on these models.
