Off topic- refrigerator odor

Hardwood, take out the sheet metal again in the freezer section until you find the cooling coils and try a spray solution washing down it completely. You probably will have to wash out the food partials that are rotting in there. Of course outside and unplugged. Would do the same on the refrigerator section as the air moves between the sections on most if not all. Charcoal for grilling is something you can try placing in it to absorb the order first. Some companies did use a charcoal filter in their higher priced models to control order.

With the smell in the freezer section and not the refrigator area that could just be due to more air being pumped into the freezer section and thus more order. If this refrigator has an ice maker, be sure the smell is not in the water going to the ice maker. kt

EW, realize you may not have a frost free model yet but they use a fan to move the air over the cooling coil(s). Here when air is pushed we often call it being pumped. It you rather think of it as a gentle breeze that is fine with me.

Hardwood, ..first try "FEBREZE". It is made to kill orders in the air.
There is a pan under the unit the melted ice runs or drips to. They can give off an order but should not show up inside, rather in the room. That being said, there could be a simple rubber or such gate to stop the air from coming it and it be missing or damaged.

Check with a company who treats for mold. They may have a chemical that you are not able to buy.

Other option is one you have already worked with, since you are there and then back home, spray it down good...fill it up with charcoal and baking soda and leave it running. Sooner or later what ever is rotting giving off the foul order will finally rot. Of course that may happen faster if it was off in a warm room with the doors open. Not my suggestion. kt
