This cabinet is functionally close to the current 17 cu. ft. upright, so diagnosis is the same and most wear parts are shared or superseded. A technician confirms the exact part number from the rating plate because supersessions are common on older freezer platforms.
If the freezer has recently been moved, allow it to stand upright for several hours before running it, and re-check the door alignment afterwards. Owners should keep a thermometer inside rather than trusting the dial position.
