We have a Westinghouse RJ522Q. Recently the temperature started to slowly decrease, so I adjusted the thermostat. It made no difference. The freezer at the top then froze up, clogging the pipe to the fridge below, and consequently the fridge lost all cooling. I turned off the power to defrost the freezer. A couple of hours later, I turned it back on and reset the thermostat to low. The temperature came back to normal in both the freezer and the fridge, so for a while it looked ok. Next morning, still looking ok, I restocked the fridge and freezer. Within an hour or two, the problem came back ... the freezer froze over and the pipe to the fridge below clogged with ice. Your thoughts on the cause would be appreciated.
