Mini Bar Fridge running but not cooling?

Answer:

First of all, don't turn a fridge on its side, that is a good way to damage a compressor. The coil isn't freezing up because of liquid coming from somewhere, it's freezing up because the boiling temp of the refrigerant is below 32°F and the condensate that is forming on the coil is freezing. It sounds like it is indeed low of refrigerant (freon). This can happen for a few reasons. Either it's low of refrigerant, or the system is running non-stop due to something like a stuck thermostat or an open door. Unplug it, let the ice melt from the coil, then plug it back in with a thermometer in the cabinet. If it never seems to get the temp down and freezes up, it's probably the refrigerant. If the temp goes down and then it freezes up, you may have a thermostat issue. Either way, it's not going to be a simple fix. If it's low of refrigerant, it's trash, since there are no service vales on this type of equipment. Even if it's something remotely fixable, paying someone to fix it will more than likely cost more than a new fridge.
study the thanks to force slower that your threat didnt study the signs and indicators gave you a fee ticket didnt get the hint then were given yet another one didnt see signal didnt get hint both now you cant force perchance were given the point that way existence is someone allow you to recognize strategies to do something you didnt pay interest some study speedier than different very last fee ticket i have been given 30 yrs in the past
Highly unlikely. It is obvious you are a repeat offender who didn't learn the first time. Being 17, be prepared to lose your license for about 6 months.
Try not to turn it on it's side, first of all, so wait an hour before you turn it on again. See if the condenser coils are dirty, the evaporator coil, in the front, too, and that the FAN on the condenser coils is working. I see the frost on the thin copper line and the copper tube so that can mean low air flow or low refrigerant.
