Garage fridge kinda died. Got one off the marketplace and it isn't quite right. It gets cold and kinda makes ice, but doesn't get cold enough to freeze the kids push pops. Below are the graphs from the freezer. It is a gallery and is 9 years old. All confidence in this unit is gone and I am picking up a new KitchenAid from Best Buy scratch and dent tomorrow.
My question is, what should I do with the gallery fridge? Scrap metal? Try to sell it back on the marketplace? Try to sell it to the vato refurb shop over in Pasadena? It obviously works, it just has something small wrong and I don't care to fix it. I am picking up the new fridge, so I can't send it with the delivery guy.

And, the display screen on the gallery is broken, but I am pretty sure I put the freezer onto the coldest setting, so that shouldn't be the issue.

Put it on curb let someone come grab it for you.

Make sure coil and fans are clean and free spinning on back/underneath. Cleaning often fixes ice issues according to my appliance repair friends. The spike also my not be an issue, it may just be running a defrost cycle and higher temp because the average is not low enough.

This, I grabbed an OLD fridge that someone put out with a FREE - Kinda Cools sign. Twenty dollars for a replacement EVAP cooling fan for the freezer and its now perfect for the shop.
