you probally need to switch f/f off and let it defrost ..
its more than likley ice thats sticking panel to back wall ..

there should be 4 screws holding panel on .. 2 at top behind vents .. 2 at bottom behind water bottle ..

we just done ours ..

bottom panel wont come unless you remove top light panel

1st step take light panel off at top - 1 screw and pop of plastic light defuser..
2 remove 3 screws that holds light panel on ..
3 remove light panel wiring plug

bottom panel ..

remove little vent plugs near top left right side
take out 2 screws behind vents
remove water bottle - 2 screws -place bottle on floor of fridge ..
remove 2 screws bottom left-right of panel ..

there is no other screws - so if panel stuck its ice behind it ..

pirze top of panel open and pour lots of hot water down inside panel - this will free panel away ..

we got a diy kit from this listing - guy very helpfull

we explained what we have tried so far etc , and he said everyone says the same thing ..bottom line is there is no quick fix - the only way to totaly cure fault is to replace the faulty components .. he does a kit which is available on ebay ...
