Examples of structured troubleshooting for cooling and cooking faults (sample scenarios pending replacement with [VERIFIED_CASE_STUDIES]).
Reported symptom: Freezer holding temperature while upper compartment warms. Diagnostic workflow: Inspected evaporator coil frost pattern, tested evaporator fan motor voltage from main control board, and cleared obstructed return air ducts.
