The two door reach in refrigerator is froze up but the temperature was still 45 degrees. One door was open about an inch. Remove the juice and put in another refrigerator. Unplug the refrigerator and allow it to thaw out and drain. After it thaws out try plugging it back in, make sure the doors are tightly closed and see what happens. If it ices back up, it needs to be repaired.
