Icicles in freezer

[laurie]

This is a 2005 Kenmore model 106.7624202 top freezer. Recently icicles have developed on the top of the freezer near the front seal and ice is forming around the fan in the back at the tunnel. Is this a seal issue or defroster problem, or something else? Doesn't seem to affect the frig compartment.

Sounds like your freezer door gasket isn't sealing properly. Check all around your freezer door gasket to make sure its sealing properly against the cabinet with no air gaps. The introduction of warm air will cause moisture to form.
