Hi. I have seen the drain tubes on these model of refrigerators clog many times, and then stop the fan motor from running. Have you cleared the drain tube yet? We need to access the drain tube under the evaporator through the floor of the refrigerator, carefully clear all the ice out. and flush some hot water down the drain. A turkey baster works well for this. You could even mix a little baking soda in with the warm water to give it a good cleaning. Once your sure that you have flushed it out really well and the water is draining out good, you can put the unit back together. I’m do not understand what you meant when you said you ” pitched the refer ” back a little bit. Let me know if you need any further help.
