Can anyone diagnose with this description. The coils in front of the compressor unit under the drop shoot, are frozen over. The unit is cooling.

if they are completely froze over from left to right...

above them,if you remove the delivery chute is a fan.......it may be bad....not circulating the ait thru the coils

next......door seals not sealing........this can cause ice up/frost problems.....just like a refrigerator at home.....

if the ice you are seeing is only on the right hand side,forming an ice ball....you have a lo-freon condition...

last....which is always a necessary preventative measure.....is the coils clean in front of the compressor at the bottom of the machine? and is the machine setting a minimum of 6 inches from the wall for proper air circulation..

you didnt say if the pop was cold, or if it was freezing the cans.......if its freezing pop, you could have a bad thermostat

Thank you for the info, the coil below the delivery chute was completely froze over ( left to right top to bottom ). I removed the ice and turned the unit back on, with no frost appearing, 99.9% it was the door seal, the door was probably not tightened securely at last service.
