fridge freezer

[Joanny]

can anyone tell me why my fridge is cooler than it usualy is. i recently defrosted my fridge/freezer and now my fridge is cooler than normal we havent turned down the thermostat and the back of the fridge is icing up. the fridge is about 5 years old. we had no problems until i defrosted it.

Probably because it is working much more efficiently now it has been defrosted.

Did you dry it thoroughly before turning it back on?
