Start here
The 4w3n80 family covers a long revision run of twenty-six models. They are one platform rather than a catalogue, which is what makes a shared fault list mean anything. Temperature complaints lead here, and the leak, ice and noise complaints behind them are often the same fault seen from another side.
What owners actually report
- Runs but will not hold temperature — Warm shelves with the machine still running, often with a frost sheet behind the freezer panel. Covered on the cooling 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.
- 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.
Ordered by how often it comes up
- Cooling — Leads here. Most calls on this platform start here.
- Water — Next. A drain or a fill path, often the visible half of a temperature problem.
- Noise — Next. The cheapest class to resolve and the one most often not a fault at all.
- Ice — Least common. Water reaching the mould explains most of these before any part does.

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