Hidden evap type? Sounds like a blown wall and unstuck itself from the evaporator. Be surprised though if it was colling effectively though.

A common problem on a lot of the Whirlpool intergrated units where the rear wall has seperated from the Evaporator,

We have temp checked it and had a glass of water in the fridge to test as well.I have never seen this before and the cust says it wasnt like that before.
